The video tutorial explains how to set up and solve an inequality based on a dinner check scenario. Veronica and Amanda's combined dinner check is less than $45.69. By letting 'v' represent Veronica's spending and 'a' Amanda's, the inequality v + a < 45.69 is established. With Veronica's spending known as $25, the inequality is simplified to solve for Amanda's spending. The tutorial demonstrates how to find values of 'a' that satisfy or do not satisfy the inequality, providing examples for clarity.
