\begin{align*} 8 y^{\prime \prime }+6 y^{\prime }+y&=0 \end{align*}

Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.003 (sec). Leaf size: 17

dsolve(8*diff(y(t),t$2)+6*diff(y(t),t)+y(t)=0,y(t), singsol=all)
 
\[ y = c_{1} {\mathrm e}^{-\frac {t}{4}}+c_{2} {\mathrm e}^{-\frac {t}{2}} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.014 (sec). Leaf size: 26

DSolve[8*D[y[t],{t,2}]+6*D[y[t],t]+y[t]==0,y[t],t,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 
\[ y(t)\to e^{-t/2} \left (c_1 e^{t/4}+c_2\right ) \]
