Can someone help me with this one?

Create a new rule that targets the span element inside .intro. Give the span element a bold font weight and an italic font style.

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lake Tahoe</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="page.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
  </head>
  <body> 
    <header id="top" class="main-header">
      <span class="title">Journey Through the Sierra Nevada Mountains</span>
      <h1>Lake Tahoe, California</h1>
    </header>
    <div class="primary-content t-border">
      <p class="intro">
        Lake Tahoe is one of the most <span>breathtaking attractions</span> located in California. It's home to a number of ski resorts, summer outdoor recreation, and tourist attractions. Snow and skiing are a significant part of the area's reputation.
      </p>
      <a href="#more">Find out more</a>
    </div>
    <footer class="main-footer">
      <p>All rights reserved to the state of <a href="#">California</a>.</p>
      <a href="#top">Back to top &raquo;</a>
    </footer>
  </body>
</html>
style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */
.intro span{
  font-size: 1.25em;
  line-height: 1.6;
  font-weight: bold;
  font-style: italic;

}

Hello Alex , You are coding great.

The Challenge Question might a bit confusing. We just need to create a new selector that select span inside intro class and set it to bold and italic.

/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */
.intro{
  font-size: 1.25em;
  line-height: 1.6;
}
.intro span{
    font-weight: bold;
  font-style: italic;
}

Thanks
