Functions and Their Properties

The video tutorial reviews various mathematical functions, including linear, quadratic, cubic, absolute value, exponential, logarithmic, and square root functions. It explains how to transform these functions through shifts and reflections and discusses their domain and range. The tutorial aims to ensure a solid understanding of these concepts before introducing a new function in the next session.
