I've watched the video's on it several times, and I know I understand it clearly, and I know I'm giving the right answer, but every now and then the answer says I'm getting it wrong. For instance compare the absolute value of 9 and -9. I put that they were equal. Since they are equal distance from zero. And it says I've gotten it wrong. I can't get past it. Help! :) Thanks
