The video tutorial explains how to graph the function f(x) = 2^(3-x) by breaking it down into simpler components. The function is rewritten as 8/(2^x) by using exponent rules. The tutorial then compares the graph of 8/(2^x) to 1/(2^x), highlighting the transformation caused by multiplying by 8. The explanation focuses on understanding the qualitative shape of the graph rather than plotting exact points.
