\begin{align*} x^{2} y^{\prime \prime }-4 x y^{\prime }+6 y&=2 \end{align*}

Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.005 (sec). Leaf size: 16

dsolve(x^2*diff(y(x),x$2)-4*x*diff(y(x),x)+6*y(x)=2,y(x), singsol=all)
 
\[ y = c_{2} x^{2}+c_{1} x^{3}+\frac {1}{3} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.011 (sec). Leaf size: 21

DSolve[x^2*D[y[x],{x,2}]-4*x*D[y[x],x]+6*y[x]==2,y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 
\[ y(x)\to c_2 x^3+c_1 x^2+\frac {1}{3} \]
