Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.002 (sec). Leaf size: 14

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

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.014 (sec). Leaf size: 20

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