Part a) The connection between the electric field and the magnetic field in an electromagnetic wave is

where
E signifies the strength of the electric field
B indicates the strength of the magnetic field
c represents the speed of light
Using the equation, we determine:

Part b) The text does not clarify the orientation of the magnetic field on the y-axis: I speculate it points in the y+ direction.
The direction of the electric field can be established using the right-hand rule, which states:
- the index finger shows the direction of E
- the middle finger indicates the orientation of B
- the thumb reveals the propagation direction of the wave
Because the wave propagates in the x+ direction, and the magnetic field in the y+ direction, we conclude that the electric field direction (index finger) must be z-.
