\[ \boxed {y y^{\prime \prime }-3 {y^{\prime }}^{2}=0} \]

Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.11 (sec). Leaf size: 33

dsolve(y(x)*diff(y(x),x$2)-3*(diff(y(x),x))^2=0,y(x), singsol=all)
 

\begin{align*} y \left (x \right ) = 0 y \left (x \right ) = \frac {1}{\sqrt {-2 c_{1} x -2 c_{2}}} y \left (x \right ) = -\frac {1}{\sqrt {-2 c_{1} x -2 c_{2}}} \end{align*}

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.106 (sec). Leaf size: 14

DSolve[y[x]*y''[x]-(y'[x])^2==0,y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 

\[ y(x)\to c_2 e^{c_1 x} \]
