A square conducting slab with 2 m sides carries a net charge of 68 microC.?

Find the charge density on each face of the slab and the electric field just outside one face of the slab.
=8.5 microC/m^2

E = 960451 N/C

The slab is placed to the right of an infinite charged nonconducting plane that lies in the yz plane at x = 0. The charge density of the infinite nonconducting plane is 2.3 microC/m2. The faces of the slab are parallel to the plane. Find the sign and magnitude of the electric field on each side of the slab (far from its edges so edge effects can be ignored) and the charge density on each face.

Ex Total (right of slab) = ?

Ex Total (left of slab) = ?

sigma (right side of slab) = ?

sigma (left side of slab) = ?

I figured out the first two parts with relative ease, however I have been trying to figure out the last four parts and it is not working out. My roommate and I cannot figure this stuff out. Any help is very appreciated. If you do a solution please give steps.
