Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.015 (sec). Leaf size: 11

dsolve([diff(y(x),x$2)-4*diff(y(x),x)+4*y(x)=0,y(0) = 0, D(y)(0) = 3],y(x), singsol=all)
 

\[ y \left (x \right ) = 3 \,{\mathrm e}^{2 x} x \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.023 (sec). Leaf size: 13

DSolve[{y''[x]-4*y'[x]+4*y[x]==0,{y[0]==0,y'[0]==3}},y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 

\[ y(x)\to 3 e^{2 x} x \]
