The video tutorial covers lesson 6.3 on writing two-step equations. It begins with modeling two-step equations using algebra tiles, explaining the representation of positive and negative variables. The tutorial then applies these equations to real-world scenarios, such as gym memberships and gift card balances, demonstrating how to translate word problems into equations. Finally, it guides viewers on creating word problems from given equations, providing examples and explanations for better understanding.
