The video tutorial explains a gum-chewing contest where Violet aims to blow the largest blueberry-flavored bubble. Every 3 seconds, she adds a piece of gum to her bubble. The tutorial uses a graph to illustrate the relationship between time and the number of gum pieces added. The x-axis represents time in seconds, while the y-axis shows the number of gum pieces. The video demonstrates plotting points at 3, 6, and 9 seconds, highlighting the constant rate of gum addition and the consistent ratio between time and gum pieces.
