The Rocky Mountains are described as younger because the Rocky's are really two mountain chains. The older mountain chain started billions of years ago, and the younger mountain chain pushed the older mountain chain up more, only 60 millions years ago.

The product of two consecutive numbers is 14 less than 10 times the smaller number. find each number
Helen [10]
The consecutive numbers are either 2 and 3, or 7 and 8..

x(x+1) = x^2 + x 
x^2 + x = 10x-14

quadratic form of x^2 + x = 10x-14:
x^2 - 9x + 14 = 0

(x-2)(x-7) = 0

x = 2, 7

so 2 and 3, or 7 and 8 are the answers
