You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let's graph the function first.
It's not symmetric to either the x-axis, the y-axis, or the origin.
If you took the positive portion of the graph, flipped it over the x-axis and then flipped it over the y-axis, you would end up the negative portion of the graph.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! y=3x/(x^2-4)
 (graph 300x200 pixels, x from -6 to 5, y from -15 to 10, 3x / (x^2 -4)).
Graph is symmetrical to the x & Y axis as well as the origin.
