\begin{align*} x^{2} y^{\prime \prime }+3 x y^{\prime }-8 y&=x \end{align*}

Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.005 (sec). Leaf size: 18

dsolve(x^2*diff(y(x),x$2)+3*x*diff(y(x),x)-8*y(x)=x,y(x), singsol=all)
 
\[ y \left (x \right ) = c_{2} x^{2}+\frac {c_{1}}{x^{4}}-\frac {x}{5} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.014 (sec). Leaf size: 23

DSolve[x^2*D[y[x],{x,2}]+3*x*D[y[x],x]-8*y[x]==x,y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 
\[ y(x)\to \frac {c_1}{x^4}+c_2 x^2-\frac {x}{5} \]
