The video tutorial discusses the concept of unit rates, comparing the unit rate of the equation y = 6.5x with the unit rate of a graph. It explains that the unit rate is the change in y for a change of 1 in x. The equation has a unit rate of 6.5, while the graph shows a unit rate of 3.5. The tutorial concludes that the graph's unit rate is less than that of the equation.
