The video tutorial explains how to determine the value of K that satisfies the translation of a graph from f(x) to f(x + K). It highlights that the addition of K to the input x results in a horizontal shift of the graph. The tutorial demonstrates that a positive K value indicates a shift to the left. By examining specific points on the graph, it is shown that the graph shifts to the left by one unit, confirming that K equals positive one. The tutorial concludes by reinforcing the understanding of how K affects the graph's position.
