The video tutorial explains how to find the slope from graphs and tables. It covers both positive and negative linear graphs, detailing how to calculate the slope using the change in y over the change in x. The tutorial also demonstrates how to analyze tables to determine the slope and understand linear relationships. Key concepts include identifying y-intercepts and using the equation y = mx + b to represent linear relationships.
