The video tutorial covers solving word problems involving exponential equations. It begins with an introduction to exponential word problems and explains the general exponential formula, including its components like initial amount, rate, and time. The tutorial then demonstrates solving compound interest problems, bacterial growth problems, and applies exponential equations to Moore's Law for transistor growth. Each section provides step-by-step guidance on using the exponential formula to find unknown variables, emphasizing real-world applications and problem-solving techniques.
