Final answer:

In the defined function h, h(3) equals 'w' as per the given ordered pair (3,w). The correct option is option a.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a function h from set x to set y, the function is defined with specific ordered pairs. To find h(3), we look at the pair where the first element is 3. In this case, the pair is (3,w), which means that h(3) is equal to w.
