Answer: Copper (I) Carbide

Explanation:

Copper is a polyatomic ion, meaning it has multiple charges. Carbon has an outer shell consisting of 4 valence electrons so it can either add or lose 4 electrons so it’s charge can be -4 or +4. As said Copper has multiple charges but they are positive, so in this case Cu4 would be 4 +1 charges compared to C which would be -4. Therefore this is a 4:1 ratio, meaning Cu4C is Copper (I) Carbide

hope this helps :)
