The video tutorial covers the final problem of the unit, focusing on rational functions. It begins with a review of previous examples and introduces the concept of degrees in numerators and denominators, leading to the identification of horizontal asymptotes. The tutorial then explains the process of factoring to find holes in the graph and concludes with determining vertical asymptotes and zeros. The instructor emphasizes understanding these concepts through practical examples and encourages students to apply the knowledge independently.

What is the primary reason the teacher is excited about the final problem?

• It's the last problem of the unit.

• It signifies the end of the course.

• It's a challenging problem.

• It's a fun problem to solve.
