f(x)=x^2+3x+m
g(x)=x+4
zero of g(x)=x=-4
f(-4)=(-4)^2+3(-4)+m=0
16-12+m=0
4+m=0
m=-4


hope this helps

Answer:

Value \: of \: m \: = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let\: p(x)=x^{2}+3x+m

If \:(x+4)\: is\:a\:factor\\\: of\: p(x)

then\: p(-4)=0

/* By Factor theorem:

If (x-a) is a factor of p(x) then p(a)=0 */

(-4)^{2}+3(-4)+m=0

\implies16-12+m=0

\implies 4+m=0

$\implies m = -4$

Therefore,

Value \: of \: m \: = -4
