My friend has an iPad. I have never used an iPad, but am trying to help her set things up better — so it's definitely a case of the blind leading the blind.
My friend reads her yahoo mail on her iPad. Her iPad remembers the password. However, she herself has forgotten her yahoo mail password, which makes life difficult — she cannot read her yahoo mail on her phone or on her laptop.

How can she change her yahoo password?

Once she has changed her yahoo password, how can she teach her iPad the new password, so she can still read her email on the iPad without having to type in her password?

As @Tyson mentioned, your friend will obviously need to reset her Yahoo password through Yahoo directly. Once that's done:
If she's pulling her email in the Apple Mail app, she can update the password in Settings (the gear-like icon) > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Once she navigates there, she needs to select Yahoo under the account list, then select the top "Account - (email address) >" option which will then give her the opportunity to enter her new password.
If she's using Yahoo's own "Yahoo Mail" iOS app, I'd imagine that the settings are within the app itself (sorry, I don't use Yahoo Mail anymore).
