The video tutorial explains how to construct a linear function by calculating the slope and y-intercept from various representations. It covers the concept of linear functions, emphasizing the constant rate of change (slope) and initial value (y-intercept). The tutorial highlights common mistakes in graph interpretation, such as confusing vertical and horizontal lines. It uses a practical example of an antelope population problem to demonstrate how to apply these concepts in different representations, including numeric and graphic forms.
