It depends if you want the scientific answer or not. The commonly accepted date of the formation of the stellar system of which the Earth is a part is about 4.6 billion years ago. If you want a non-scientific answer (such as from adherents to the Old Testament), you won't get it from me, for I disagree with their illogical reasoning.

Nobody knows. It could be very young or very old. If it lasts another 100 billion years then it would be young on those terms..
