Homework Statement

Find the general solution in terms of Hypergeometric functions near x = -1 :
(1-x2)y'' - (5x2 - 9)/5x y' + 8y = 0

The Attempt at a Solution



Here the coefficient of y' contains 9/5x which causes problem. The general form contains the coefficient of y' as A+Bx

How do I solve this?
