What are exponential functions

The video tutorial introduces exponential functions, comparing them to polynomials. It explains the standard form of an exponential function, y = a^x, and outlines the conditions for 'a', which must be greater than 0 and not equal to 1. The tutorial provides examples of exponential functions and discusses their properties, emphasizing the importance of understanding these concepts for solving exponential growth problems.

Explain the significance of understanding polynomials before learning about exponential functions.
