The video tutorial covers identifying opposites and absolute values of rational numbers. It explains that the opposite of a negative rational number is positive and vice versa. Absolute value is described as the distance from zero on a number line, always non-negative. Examples include graphing stock value changes and finding the absolute value of temperatures.
