The video tutorial explains how to graph the linear equation x=2. It describes that x is always 2 regardless of y's value, resulting in a vertical line on the x-axis. The tutorial tests this by plotting points (2, 3), (2, 0), and (2, -3), confirming they all lie on the line. The video concludes with a thank you from Dr. B.
