The video tutorial covers graphing absolute value functions by transforming the parent function. It begins with an introduction to the absolute value parent function and its equation. The tutorial explains how to plot points and identify characteristics like symmetry and vertex. It then explores transformations such as reflections and shifts, and how multipliers affect graph steepness. Finally, it demonstrates how to predict graph shapes from given equations, emphasizing the importance of understanding shifts and steepness changes.
