Direct substitution with the left hand limit

The video tutorial covers factoring expressions, evaluating limits, and understanding continuous functions. It explains how to factor both the numerator and denominator of an expression, evaluate limits, and determine continuity at a specific point. The tutorial also discusses the simplification of fractions and advises against spending too much time on manual calculations, emphasizing the importance of understanding the concepts over computational details.
