The video tutorial explains how to graph an equation using the slope-intercept form, Y = MX + B. It begins by introducing the concept and components of the slope-intercept form, where M is the slope and B is the Y-intercept. The tutorial then demonstrates how to graph the equation by starting at the Y-intercept and using the slope to plot additional points. The video concludes by summarizing the process and emphasizing the flexibility of using positive or negative changes in X and Y to extend the graph in both directions.
