Calculating Rates of Change for Nonlinear Graphs

The video tutorial explains nonlinear graphs and how to calculate the rate of change. It covers both average and instantaneous rates of change, using examples like a rocket's takeoff and bacterial cell reproduction. The tutorial provides step-by-step instructions for calculating these rates, emphasizing the importance of understanding changes over time in various contexts, such as science and finance.
