Answer:

Yes, the function is symmetric about y-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

To check whether the function is symmetric with respect to y-axis, replace each x as -x and simplify.

If h(x) = h(-x) then it is symmetric about y-axis.

Let's find h(-x) now.

h(-x)= [tex](-x)^4} -5(-x)^{2} +3[/tex]

Let's simplify it

h(-x)=[tex]x^{4}-5x^{2} +3[/tex]

Here, h(x) = h(-x). The function is symmetric about y-axis.
