The video tutorial explains how to find zeros and multiplicity of a polynomial. It begins with an introduction to the concepts, followed by a discussion on end behavior using the leading coefficient test. The tutorial then covers methods to find zeros, including factoring and solving polynomial equations. It explains how to determine multiplicity from factors and the importance of understanding multiplicity when graphing. The zero product property is also discussed as a method to find solutions.
