Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.019 (sec). Leaf size: 16

dsolve([diff(x(t),t)=10*x(t)-x(t)^2,x(0) = 1],x(t), singsol=all)
 
\[ x = \frac {10}{1+9 \,{\mathrm e}^{-10 t}} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.010 (sec). Leaf size: 21

DSolve[{D[x[t],t]==10*x[t]-x[t]^2,{x[0]==1}},x[t],t,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 
\[ x(t)\to \frac {10 e^{10 t}}{e^{10 t}+9} \]
