I need some help ,why is this associative array not working?

I have tried several times and looked around, I cant seem to understand why I am getting this question wrong.

The question is asking for an associative array , what is wrong with this code? $favorite_colors = array('mike'=>'green' , 'jane'=>'blue' , 'chris'=>'yellow');

index.php 
<?php

//Place your code below this comment
$integer_one = 1;
$integer_two = 2;
$golden = 1.618;
$bool = TRUE;
$colors = array('red','blue','green');
echo $colors[1]
  $favorite_colors = array('mike'=>'green' , 'jane'=>'blue' , 'chris'=>'yellow');


?>

You need a semicolon after your echo and at the end of the array.
