The video tutorial explains the concept of average rate of change using graphs, equating it to the slope of a line. It describes how to identify positive, negative, and zero slopes on a graph. The tutorial then focuses on analyzing different intervals of a graph to determine which sections have a negative slope of -4. It concludes with a detailed calculation of slope values to identify the correct interval with the desired slope.
