The video tutorial covers exponential growth and decay, starting with a calculus-based derivation of the formula. It explains the process of solving differential equations to model exponential growth or decay. The tutorial includes examples, such as population growth and weight increase, to demonstrate the application of the formula in real-world scenarios.

What triggers your attention as a derivative in the context of calculus?

• The difference between two points

• The product of constants

• The sum of variables

What does the constant 'k' represent in the context of exponential growth and decay?

• The time variable

• The final value of y

• The rate of growth or decay

• The initial condition
