The video tutorial explains how to determine the slope from a table of values. It begins by identifying that the slope is the change in Y over the change in X. The tutorial highlights that if Y values remain constant, the slope is zero, regardless of changes in X. Through examples, it demonstrates calculating slope, including handling negative values. The key takeaway is that a constant Y results in a zero slope, as dividing zero by any number equals zero.
