Antiderivatives and Initial Value Problems

The video tutorial covers the concept of antiderivatives, starting with basic functions and moving on to exponential functions. It explains how to solve initial value problems using antiderivatives and applies these concepts to business scenarios, such as calculating marginal cost. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of understanding derivative rules to find antiderivatives effectively.
