The video tutorial explains various methods to display data, such as box plots, pie charts, dot plots, bar graphs, stem plots, and histograms. It distinguishes between categorical and quantitative data, providing examples like the US Census. The tutorial details how to display categorical data using pie charts and bar graphs, and quantitative data using dot plots, stem plots, histograms, and box plots. It emphasizes the importance of selecting the appropriate graph based on data type and size, and concludes with steps to analyze and draw conclusions from data displays.
