Air enters the turbocharger compressor of an automotive engine at 100 kPa, 30C, and exits at 170

Question:

Air enters the turbocharger compressor of an automotive engine at 100 kPa, 30C, and exits at 170 kPa, the air is cooled by 50C in an intercooler before entering the engine. The isentropic efficiency of the compressor is 75%. Determine the temperature of the air entering the engine and the irreversibility of the compression-cooling process.
