x'+2x+y=0
y'+x+2y=0
t=0 => x=1 , y=0

        It is straightforward to incorporate the initial conditions in the dsolve call:
syms x(t) y(t)
Dx = diff(x);
Dy = diff(y);
[x,y] = dsolve(Dx + 2*x + y == 0, Dy + x + 2*y == 0, x(0) == 1, y(0) == 0)
x =
exp(-t)/2 + exp(-3*t)/2
y =
exp(-3*t)/2 - exp(-t)/2

      1.
solving the system
syms x(t) y(t)
z=dsolve(diff(x)==-y-2*y,diff(y)==-x-2*y)
z.x
=
C2*exp(-3*t) - 3*C1*exp(t)
z.y
 =
C1*exp(t) + C2*exp(-3*t)
2.
applying initial conditions, A(t=0):
A=[1 -3;1 1]
b=[1;0]
s=A\b
=
   0.250000000000000
  -0.250000000000000
C1=s(1)
C1 =
   0.250000000000000
C2=s(2)
C2 =
  -0.250000000000000
3. Build real functions
      fx=matlabFunction(z.x)
      fx = 
          @(C1,C2,t)C1.*exp(t).*-3.0+C2.*exp(t.*-3.0)
      fy=matlabFunction(z.y)
      fy = 
          @(C1,C2,t)C1.*exp(t)+C2.*exp(t.*-3.0)
t=[10:.1:10]
   fx(C1,C2,t)
   =
      -1.651984934610504e+04
   fy(C1,C2,t)
   =
       5.506616448701680e+03
