Final answer:

There is no value of x that satisfies the given equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, we can set the two medians, EC and DC, equal to each other since they intersect at point D.

Therefore, 3x+9 = 3x-6.

Let's solve for x:

  1. 3x+9 = 3x-6
  2. Subtract 3x from both sides: 9 = -6
  3. This is not possible since 9 is not equal to -6. Hence, there is no solution for x.

Therefore, there is no value of x that satisfies the given equation.
