Solution by Maple

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

dsolve(diff(y(x),x$2)-9*diff(y(x),x)+20*y(x)=0,y(x), singsol=all)
 
\[ y = c_{1} {\mathrm e}^{4 x}+c_{2} {\mathrm e}^{5 x} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.015 (sec). Leaf size: 20

DSolve[D[y[x],{x,2}] -9*D[y[x],x]+20*y[x]==0,y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 
\[ y(x)\to e^{4 x} \left (c_2 e^x+c_1\right ) \]
