Answer:

f(x) is even

f(x) is symmetrical about the y-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is:


f(x)=4x^4+x^(10)+3

A function is even if f(x) = f(-x)


\begin{gathered} f(-x)=4(-x)^4+(-x)^(10)+3 \\ \\ f(-x)=4x^4+x^(10)+3 \end{gathered}

Since f(-x) = f(x), the function f(x) is an even function

Also, since f(x) = f(-x), the function f(x) is symmetrical about the y-axis
