Using reduction of order method given that one solution is

\begin{align*} y&={\mathrm e}^{-5 t} \end{align*}

Solution by Maple

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

dsolve([diff(y(t),t$2)+10*diff(y(t),t)+25*y(t)=0,exp(-5*t)],singsol=all)
 
\[ y = {\mathrm e}^{-5 t} \left (c_{2} t +c_{1} \right ) \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.014 (sec). Leaf size: 18

DSolve[D[y[t],{t,2}]+10*D[y[t],t]+25*y[t]==0,y[t],t,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 
\[ y(t)\to e^{-5 t} (c_2 t+c_1) \]
