The video tutorial explains how to write mathematical expressions from real-world scenarios. It provides three examples: calculating Steve's earnings from mowing lawns, Maria's shopping expenses, and Jose's age relative to his father's age. Each example involves defining variables, creating expressions, and solving them to model the given situations.
