Percent Change and Population Growth

The video tutorial covers calculations of percent changes in various contexts, including rent and stock prices, as well as population growth and decline scenarios. It explains how to calculate percent increase and decrease using a formula, and applies this to real-world examples such as rent prices, stock values, and animal populations. The tutorial also demonstrates exponential growth and decay calculations for populations of cats, tigers, and bacteria over specified time periods.
