Answer:

m = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

=> -15 is a root of the polynomial

=> It is a zero to the solution.

Process :

Substitute -15 in place of x.

=> (-15)² + (-15)m + 45 = 0

=> 225 + 45 - 15m = 0

=> 15m = 270

=> m = 270/15

=> m = 18

Answer:

E = 50

D = 150

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the exterior angle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles

D + E = 200

D = 3E

Substituting that into the equation

3E + E = 200

Combing terms

4E = 200

Divide by 4

4E /4 = 200/4

E = 50

D = 3E

D = 3*50 = 150
