If x = a #0 is a singular point of a second-order linear differential equation, then the substitution t = x - a transforms it
into a differential equation having t=0 as a singular point. We then attribute to the original equation at x = a the
behavior of the new equation at t= 0. Classify (as regular or irregular) the singular points of the differential equation.
(5-x)y" + xy' + 6x²y=0
