\begin{align*} y^{\prime \prime }-9 y&=0 \end{align*}

Solution by Maple

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

dsolve(diff(y(x),x$2)-9*y(x)=0,y(x), singsol=all)
 
\[ y \left (x \right ) = c_{1} {\mathrm e}^{-3 x}+c_{2} {\mathrm e}^{3 x} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.014 (sec). Leaf size: 22

DSolve[D[y[x],{x,2}]-9*y[x]==0,y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 
\[ y(x)\to e^{-3 x} \left (c_1 e^{6 x}+c_2\right ) \]
