CAS Maple gives this as type [[_Emden, _Fowler]]

\[ \boxed {x^{2} y^{\prime \prime }-12 y^{\prime } x +42 y=0} \]

Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.0 (sec). Leaf size: 13

dsolve(x^2*diff(y(x),x$2)-12*x*diff(y(x),x)+42*y(x)=0,y(x), singsol=all)
 

\[ y \left (x \right ) = x^{6} \left (c_{2} x +c_{1} \right ) \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.011 (sec). Leaf size: 16

DSolve[x^2*y''[x]-12*x*y'[x]+42*y[x]==0,y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 

\[ y(x)\to x^6 (c_2 x+c_1) \]
