I can't seem to figure out why this is incorrect. The checked part is incorrect.

Here is the question: Now, create an attribute selector that targets input elements with a type value of radio. In the same selector, add the :checked pseudo class, then use a combinator to target the label that is an immediate sibling of a radio button. Set the color to blue and the font weight to bold.

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>UI Element States Pseudo-Classes</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="page.css">
    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css">
</head>
    <body>
        <form>
            <label>Name:</label>
            <input type="text">
            <label>Phone:</label>
            <input type="text" disabled>
            <div>
                <input name="radio" id="radio1" type="radio"><label for="radio1">Option 1</label>
                <input name="radio" id="radio2" type="radio"><label for="radio2">Option 2</label>
            </div>
            <input type="submit" value="Submit">
        </form>
    </body>
</html>
style.css 
/* Write your CSS code below */
:disabled{
  background-color: lightgray;
  }
input[type:"radio"]: checked + label {
  color: blue;
  font-weight: bold;
}

So close! You're looking for type '=', rather than type ':'.

input[type="radio"]: checked + label {
  color: blue;
  font-weight: bold;
}
