The video tutorial explains the concept of constant rate of change, which is essentially the gradient of a linear graph. It uses examples, such as calculating the speed of a car using a distance-time graph, to illustrate how the gradient represents speed. The tutorial also defines a distance function and explores the relationship between time and distance. Additionally, it analyzes the speeds of three cars on a track, demonstrating how different speeds affect travel time. The video concludes with a summary of the concepts and their real-life applications.
