Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.021 (sec). Leaf size: 21

dsolve([diff(y(x),x$2)-diff(y(x),x)-2*y(x)=0,y(1) = 3, D(y)(1) = -1],y(x), singsol=all)
 
\[ y = \frac {7 \,{\mathrm e}^{1-x}}{3}+\frac {2 \,{\mathrm e}^{2 x -2}}{3} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.015 (sec). Leaf size: 28

DSolve[{D[y[x],{x,2}]-D[y[x],x]-2*y[x]==0,{y[1]==3,Derivative[1][y][1]==-1}},y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
