The video tutorial covers interpreting graphs of functions, focusing on key concepts such as x-intercepts, y-intercepts, line symmetry, positive and negative functions, increasing and decreasing functions, relative maximums and minimums, and end behavior. The instructor provides definitions and visual examples to illustrate these concepts, emphasizing the importance of reading graphs from left to right. The tutorial concludes with a detailed example, analyzing a graph's intercepts, extrema, and behavior as it approaches infinity.
