This video tutorial covers solving quadratic equations by graphing. It begins with an introduction to quadratic equations and their standard form. The tutorial then explains the steps to solve these equations by graphing, including finding the axis of symmetry and vertex. It demonstrates how to identify solutions through x-intercepts and reviews the steps involved in solving quadratic equations. An example problem is provided to find the zeros of a quadratic equation, and the video concludes with a discussion on the number of solutions a parabola can have.
