\begin{align*} y^{\prime }&=\frac {y}{2}+4 \,{\mathrm e}^{\frac {t}{2}} \end{align*}

Solution by Maple

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

dsolve(diff(y(t),t)=y(t)/2+4*exp(t/2),y(t), singsol=all)
 
\[ y = \left (4 t +c_{1} \right ) {\mathrm e}^{\frac {t}{2}} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.041 (sec). Leaf size: 19

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