Answer:

The value of m is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

[tex]x^{2}+mx+n=0[/tex]

step 1

Find the value of n

For x=0

[tex]0^{2}+m(0)+n=0[/tex]

[tex]n=0[/tex]

step 2

Find the value of m

For x=-3

substitute

[tex]x^{2}+mx=0[/tex]

[tex](-3)^{2}+m(-3)=0[/tex]

[tex]9-3m=0[/tex]

[tex]3m=9[/tex]

[tex]m=3[/tex]
