The video tutorial explains how to graph an absolute value function by understanding transformations. It covers how subtracting values inside and outside the function affects the graph's position, moving it right and down. The tutorial demonstrates plotting the graph using a vertex and slopes, forming a V-shape. It concludes with a discussion on the domain and range of absolute value functions, highlighting that the domain includes all real numbers, while the range starts from a minimum value and extends upwards.
