Solution by Maple

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

dsolve(4*diff(y(t),t$2)+21*diff(y(t),t)+5*y(t)=0,y(t), singsol=all)
 
\[ y = c_{1} {\mathrm e}^{-\frac {t}{4}}+c_{2} {\mathrm e}^{-5 t} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.022 (sec). Leaf size: 35

DSolve[D[y[t],{t,2}]+21*D[y[t],t]+5*y[t]==0,y[t],t,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 
\[ y(t)\to e^{-\frac {1}{2} \left (21+\sqrt {421}\right ) t} \left (c_2 e^{\sqrt {421} t}+c_1\right ) \]
