\begin{align*} y^{\prime \prime }-9 y^{\prime }+14 y&=0 \end{align*}

Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.001 (sec). Leaf size: 17

dsolve(diff(y(x),x$2)-9*diff(y(x),x)+14*y(x)=0,y(x), singsol=all)
 
\[ y = {\mathrm e}^{7 x} c_{1} +{\mathrm e}^{2 x} c_{2} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.014 (sec). Leaf size: 22

DSolve[D[y[x],{x,2}]-9*D[y[x],x]+14*y[x]==0,y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 
\[ y(x)\to e^{2 x} \left (c_2 e^{5 x}+c_1\right ) \]
