Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.014 (sec). Leaf size: 17

dsolve([diff(y(t),t$2)+5*diff(y(t),t)+6*y(t)=0,y(0) = 2, D(y)(0) = 0],y(t), singsol=all)
 
\[ y = -4 \,{\mathrm e}^{-3 t}+6 \,{\mathrm e}^{-2 t} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.013 (sec). Leaf size: 18

DSolve[{D[y[t],{t,2}]+5*D[y[t],t]+6*y[t]==0,{y[0]==2,Derivative[1][y][0] ==0}},y[t],t,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 
\[ y(t)\to e^{-3 t} \left (6 e^t-4\right ) \]
