In this video, the instructor introduces quadratic applications, focusing on a problem involving a gravel path of uniform width around a lawn. The problem is set up by describing the dimensions and total area, followed by drawing a diagram. The instructor then sets up a quadratic equation, expands and simplifies it, and factorizes it to find the width of the path. The solution is found to be 5 meters. The video concludes with a prompt to watch the next part for a similar problem with a twist.
