The video tutorial covers the process of determining the slope and writing equations in slope-intercept form. It begins with a review of graphing functions using tables of values, highlighting the tedious nature of this method. The tutorial then introduces the slope-intercept form as a more efficient way to graph lines, explaining the significance of the Y-intercept and slope. The instructor demonstrates how to write equations in this form when given a slope and a point, emphasizing the importance of understanding the relationship between X and Y coordinates on a graph.
