\[ \boxed {4 x^{2} y^{\prime \prime }+17 y=0} \]

Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.0 (sec). Leaf size: 23

dsolve(4*x^2*diff(y(x),x$2)+17*y(x)=0,y(x), singsol=all)
 

\[ y \left (x \right ) = \sqrt {x}\, \left (c_{1} \sin \left (2 \ln \left (x \right )\right )+c_{2} \cos \left (2 \ln \left (x \right )\right )\right ) \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.027 (sec). Leaf size: 28

DSolve[4*x^2*y''[x]+17*y[x]==0,y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 

\[ y(x)\to \sqrt {x} (c_2 \cos (2 \log (x))+c_1 \sin (2 \log (x))) \]
