CAS Maple gives this as type [[_Emden, _Fowler]]

Solve \begin {gather*} \boxed {\left (x +2\right ) y^{\prime \prime }+3 y=0} \end {gather*} With initial conditions \begin {align*} [y \relax (0) = 0, y^{\prime }\relax (0) = 1] \end {align*}

With the expansion point for the power series method at \(x = 0\).

Solution by Maple

Order:=6; 
dsolve([(x+2)*diff(y(x),x$2)+3*y(x)=0,y(0) = 0, D(y)(0) = 1],y(x),type='series',x=0);
 

\[ y \relax (x ) = x -\frac {1}{4} x^{3}+\frac {1}{16} x^{4}+\mathrm {O}\left (x^{6}\right ) \]

Solution by Mathematica
