An ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle using refrigerant-134a as the working fluid is used to cool a brine

Question:

An ideal vapor-compression refrigeration cycle using refrigerant-134a as the working fluid is used to cool a brine solution to −5°C. This solution is pumped to various buildings for the purpose of air-conditioning. The refrigerant evaporates at −10°C with a total mass flow rate of 7 kg/s, and condenses at 600 kPa. Determine the COP of the cycle and the total cooling load.
