This is just a common problem solving question, which I cannot make, I suspect because I'm bad at maths. Anyway, I want to see it done, hopefully to grasp it. I am doing physics, so, it's an exercise from one of my books.
18-11. Show that the efficiency e of a Carnot engine and the performance coefficient K of a Carnot refrigerator are erlated by K=(1-e)/e. The engine and the refrigerator operate between the hot and cold reservoirs.
e= Th-Tc/Th
K= Tc/Th-Tc
