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

Solve \begin {gather*} \boxed {\left (4 x^{2}-24 x +37\right ) y^{\prime \prime }+y=0} \end {gather*} With initial conditions \begin {align*} [y \relax (3) = 4, y^{\prime }\relax (3) = -6] \end {align*}

With the expansion point for the power series method at \(x = 3\).

dsolve([(4*x^2-24*x+37)*diff(y(x),x$2)+y(x)=0,y(3) = 4, D(y)(3) = -6],y(x),type='series',x=3);
 

\[ y \relax (x ) = 4-6 \left (x -3\right )-2 \left (x -3\right )^{2}+\left (x -3\right )^{3}+\frac {3}{2} \left (x -3\right )^{4}-\frac {5}{4} \left (x -3\right )^{5}+\mathrm {O}\left (\left (x -3\right )^{6}\right ) \]
