The video tutorial explains how to compare two quadratic functions by finding their y-intercepts. It demonstrates setting X to 0 in the equations y = x^2 - 4x + 3 and y = x^2 + 4x - 5 to calculate the y-intercepts. The results are converted into coordinate points, providing a clear understanding of the process.

What are the two quadratic functions that Adan is comparing?

y = x^2 + 4x + 3 and y = x^2 - 4x - 5

y = x^2 - 3x + 4 and y = x^2 + 5x - 4

y = x^2 + 3x - 4 and y = x^2 - 5x + 4

y = x^2 - 4x + 3 and y = x^2 + 4x - 5
