The video tutorial explains how to solve quadratic systems algebraically using substitution and elimination methods. It begins with an introduction to the concept, followed by a detailed example using substitution to find the intersection points of a parabola and a line. The tutorial then presents another example using the elimination method, demonstrating how to align and manipulate equations to isolate variables and solve for intersection points. The importance of verifying solutions is emphasized throughout.
