A radiator on a proposed satellite solar power station must dissipate heat being generated within the satellite

Question:

A radiator on a proposed satellite solar power station must dissipate heat being generated within the satellite by radiating it into space. The radiator surface has a solar absorptivity of 0.5 and an emissivity of 0.95. What is the equilibrium surface temperature when the solar irradiation is 1000 W/m2 and the required heat dissipation is 1500 W/m2?
