Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.030 (sec). Leaf size: 15

dsolve([diff(y(x),x)=-3*x^2/(2*y(x)),y(-1) = 1/2],y(x), singsol=all)
 
\[ y = \frac {\sqrt {-4 x^{3}-3}}{2} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.044 (sec). Leaf size: 20

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