The video tutorial explains how Tristan's weekly pay is calculated based on a fixed amount and the number of frozen bananas sold. It uses the equation P = 0.67n + 160, where P is the weekly pay and n is the number of bananas sold. The tutorial demonstrates how to calculate Tristan's pay if he sells 340 bananas and how to determine the number of bananas sold if he earns a specific amount, such as $535.20. The process involves substituting values into the equation and solving for the unknown variable.
