CAS Maple gives this as type [[_2nd_order, _missing_x], [_2nd_order, _exact, _nonlinear], _Lagerstrom, [_2nd_order, _reducible, _mu_x_y1], [_2nd_order, _reducible, _mu_xy]]

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

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