The video tutorial covers solving absolute value inequalities, focusing on 'and' and 'or' inequalities. It explains how to treat inequalities with less than as 'and' compound inequalities and those with greater than as 'or' inequalities. The tutorial provides examples of solving absolute value inequalities, demonstrating the process on a number line and explaining the importance of flipping the sign when dealing with negative cases. The video also includes examples of solving inequalities with both greater than and less than symbols, emphasizing the steps to isolate the absolute value and solve the inequalities.
