Tu Versus Vous in a Quiz

Why was my answer marked wrong because I used tu instead of vous when there was no indicator either way.

Wouldn’t either  choice be correct in a quiz?

I realize that in speech there is always a reason for choosing tu versus vous.

Thank you

Without the full example, it’s hard to say. Did the example require the plural or give clues to needing ‘vous’ - a formal social situation or other agreements ? It is best to raise this query through the report button on the quiz, as it can be linked directly to the quiz.

I think it worth mentioning that the Spanish language version of Zwizik is very careful about the second person.
