The video tutorial explains how to set up an integral expression to calculate the volume of a solid formed by rotating a region between two functions, f(x) and g(x), around the line y=1. It uses the disk method to derive the volume expressions for each function separately and then combines them to find the volume of the region between the functions. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of setting up the integral correctly without evaluating it.
