The video tutorial covers a recap of inequalities, including symbols and representation on a number line. It explains how to graph linear equations by identifying gradients and y-intercepts. The tutorial then describes how to use inequalities to define shaded regions on a graph. It also demonstrates solving practical problems by comparing areas of geometric shapes using inequalities. The video concludes with a summary of representing inequalities graphically.
