Thanks for the help! It is greatly appreciated.

I spoke with the person who was helping me to set up the rails environment.

He said that mysql had already been installed.

So I typed this command into terminal in order to start mysql:

mysql.server start

____

Then I got another error:
Unknown database 'simple_cms_development'

this was resolved by typing the following into terminal:
bin/rake db:create db:migrate

The problem is resolved. Now I am able to successfully move forward with 
the class.

Thanks again
-Michael
