Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs)

syms t y(t)
ysol=dsolve(' D2y + Dy + 4.25*y = 0','y(0)=2','Dy(0)=1');
y(t)=simplify(ysol)
ezplot(y(t),[0 10]);
xlabel('t');
ylabel('y(t)');
Based on the code block above, I get the following output.
But the output I want to get is as follows.
The formula is as above
I have to use ezplot. How can I get the 2nd output? Where am I making a mistake?

Change the ezplot call to fplot:
syms t y(t)
ysol=dsolve(' D2y + Dy + 4.25*y = 0','y(0)=2','Dy(0)=1');
Warning: Support of character vectors and strings will be removed in a future release. Use sym objects to define differential equations instead.
y(t)=simplify(ysol)
y(t) = 
fplot(y(t),[0 10]);
xlabel('t');
ylabel('y(t)');
grid
And note the Warning.

I'm asking because I don't know, what's the difference between fplot and ezplot?
The documentation for fplot and ezplot explains it better than I can. Essentially, fplot is more robust anbd easier to use, although there are some differences.
My pleasure!
