Solution by Maple

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

dsolve(diff(y(x),x$2)-diff(y(x),x)-6*y(x)=0,y(x), singsol=all)
 
\[ y = \left ({\mathrm e}^{5 x} c_{1} +c_{2} \right ) {\mathrm e}^{-2 x} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.013 (sec). Leaf size: 22

DSolve[D[y[x],{x,2}]-D[y[x],x]-6*y[x]==0,y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 
\[ y(x)\to e^{-2 x} \left (c_2 e^{5 x}+c_1\right ) \]
