Equivalent answers are now incorrect

Math problems are now marking correct answers as incorrect… example a student answered a question as “-2x - 3”. Khan Academy marked it incorrect as I’m guessing it wanted the answer in the form of “-2(x + 3/2)”. Either that or Khan Academy had the wrong answer… unfortunately, with the new interface, I can’t tell what answer Khan Academy was expecting. My only workaround is to tell the student that they got the answer correct and that Khan Academy has a bug.
Screenshots unfortunately pertain to my first comment below as I can no longer see all the questions to the exercise from the Teacher View… just 2 of the questions. It seems to like my student’s answer this time whereas it was incorrect before. This is Algebra 1, Unit 8, Inverse Functions.
