The graph of the function
The domain of the function
The points at which the function is not precisely defined:
$$x_{1} = -2.23606797749979$$
$$x_{2} = 2.23606797749979$$
The points of intersection with the X-axis coordinate
Graph of the function intersects the axis X at f = 0
so we need to solve the equation:
$$\frac{2 x}{x^{2} - 5} = 0$$
Solve this equation
The points of intersection with the axis X:

Analytical solution
$$x_{1} = 0$$
Numerical solution
$$x_{1} = 0$$
The points of intersection with the Y axis coordinate
The graph crosses Y axis when x equals 0:
substitute x = 0 to (2*x)/(x^2 - 5).
$$\frac{0 \cdot 2}{-5 + 0^{2}}$$
The result:
$$f{\left(0 \right)} = 0$$
The point:
(0, 0)
Extrema of the function
In order to find the extrema, we need to solve the equation
$$\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} = 0$$
(the derivative equals zero),
and the roots of this equation are the extrema of this function:
$$\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)} = $$
the first derivative
$$- \frac{4 x^{2}}{\left(x^{2} - 5\right)^{2}} + \frac{2}{x^{2} - 5} = 0$$
Solve this equation
Solutions are not found,
function may have no extrema
Inflection points
Let's find the inflection points, we'll need to solve the equation for this
$$\frac{d^{2}}{d x^{2}} f{\left(x \right)} = 0$$
(the second derivative equals zero),
the roots of this equation will be the inflection points for the specified function graph:
$$\frac{d^{2}}{d x^{2}} f{\left(x \right)} = $$
the second derivative
$$\frac{4 x \left(\frac{4 x^{2}}{x^{2} - 5} - 3\right)}{\left(x^{2} - 5\right)^{2}} = 0$$
Solve this equation
The roots of this equation
$$x_{1} = 0$$
You also need to calculate the limits of y '' for arguments seeking to indeterminate points of a function:
Points where there is an indetermination:
$$x_{1} = -2.23606797749979$$
$$x_{2} = 2.23606797749979$$

$$\lim_{x \to -2.23606797749979^-}\left(\frac{4 x \left(\frac{4 x^{2}}{x^{2} - 5} - 3\right)}{\left(x^{2} - 5\right)^{2}}\right) = -1.63400850514957 \cdot 10^{47}$$
$$\lim_{x \to -2.23606797749979^+}\left(\frac{4 x \left(\frac{4 x^{2}}{x^{2} - 5} - 3\right)}{\left(x^{2} - 5\right)^{2}}\right) = -1.63400850514957 \cdot 10^{47}$$
- limits are equal, then skip the corresponding point
$$\lim_{x \to 2.23606797749979^-}\left(\frac{4 x \left(\frac{4 x^{2}}{x^{2} - 5} - 3\right)}{\left(x^{2} - 5\right)^{2}}\right) = 1.63400850514957 \cdot 10^{47}$$
$$\lim_{x \to 2.23606797749979^+}\left(\frac{4 x \left(\frac{4 x^{2}}{x^{2} - 5} - 3\right)}{\left(x^{2} - 5\right)^{2}}\right) = 1.63400850514957 \cdot 10^{47}$$

Сonvexity and concavity intervals:
Let’s find the intervals where the function is convex or concave, for this look at the behaviour of the function at the inflection points:
Concave at the intervals
$$\left(-\infty, 0\right]$$
Convex at the intervals
$$\left[0, \infty\right)$$
Vertical asymptotes
Have:
$$x_{1} = -2.23606797749979$$
$$x_{2} = 2.23606797749979$$
Horizontal asymptotes
Let’s find horizontal asymptotes with help of the limits of this function at x->+oo and x->-oo
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{2 x}{x^{2} - 5}\right) = 0$$
Let's take the limit
so,
equation of the horizontal asymptote on the left:
$$y = 0$$
$$\lim_{x \to \infty}\left(\frac{2 x}{x^{2} - 5}\right) = 0$$
Let's take the limit
so,
equation of the horizontal asymptote on the right:
$$y = 0$$
Inclined asymptotes
Inclined asymptote can be found by calculating the limit of (2*x)/(x^2 - 5), divided by x at x->+oo and x ->-oo
$$\lim_{x \to -\infty}\left(\frac{2}{x^{2} - 5}\right) = 0$$
Let's take the limit
so,
inclined coincides with the horizontal asymptote on the right
$$\lim_{x \to \infty}\left(\frac{2}{x^{2} - 5}\right) = 0$$
Let's take the limit
so,
inclined coincides with the horizontal asymptote on the left
Even and odd functions
Let's check, whether the function even or odd by using relations f = f(-x) и f = -f(-x).
So, check:
$$\frac{2 x}{x^{2} - 5} = - \frac{2 x}{x^{2} - 5}$$
- No
$$\frac{2 x}{x^{2} - 5} = \frac{2 x}{x^{2} - 5}$$
- No
so, the function
not is
neither even, nor odd
