Answer:


\huge\boxed{c=(79)/(34)=2(11)/(34)}

Explanation:


-3-34(c-4)=54\qquad|\text{add 3 to both sides}\\\\-3+3-34(c-4)=54+3\\\\-34(c-4)=57\qquad|\text{use the distributive property}\\\\(-34)(c)+(-34)(-4)=57\\\\-34c+136=57\qquad|\text{subtract 136 from both sides}\\\\-34c+136-136=57-136\\\\-34c=-79\qquad|\text{divide both sides by (-34)}\\\\(-34c)/(-34)=(-79)/(-34)\\\\c=(79)/(34)
