Exploring Exponential Function Notation

The video tutorial covers function notation, revisiting concepts from linear equations. It demonstrates how to use a calculator to solve function notation problems with examples, including F(5), F(6), F(1/2), and F(7). Each example involves substituting a value into the function and calculating the result using a calculator.
