To solve the equation \( x^2 = \frac{9}{25} \), we can take the square root of both sides.
1. Taking the square root gives us:
\[
x = \pm \sqrt{\frac{9}{25}}
\]
2. Now, calculate the square root:
\[
\sqrt{\frac{9}{25}} = \frac{\sqrt{9}}{\sqrt{25}} = \frac{3}{5}
\]
3. Therefore, the solutions for \( x \) are:
\[
x = \pm \frac{3}{5}
\]
So, the correct response is:
C. \( x = \pm \frac{3}{5} \)
