Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.004 (sec). Leaf size: 17

dsolve(x^2*diff(y(x),x$2)+4*x*diff(y(x),x)+(2-x^2)*y(x)=0,y(x), singsol=all)
 
\[ y = \frac {c_{1} \sinh \left (x \right )+c_{2} \cosh \left (x \right )}{x^{2}} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.028 (sec). Leaf size: 28

DSolve[x^2*D[y[x],{x,2}]+4*x*D[y[x],x]+(2-x^2)*y[x]==0,y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 
\[ y(x)\to \frac {2 c_1 e^{-x}+c_2 e^x}{2 x^2} \]
