The video tutorial covers exponent rules, focusing on zero and negative exponents. It explains how any number to the zero power equals one and how negative exponents require moving the base to the opposite part of a fraction to make the exponent positive. The tutorial includes examples of simplifying expressions with exponents and emphasizes the importance of handling negative exponents before applying other rules. Additionally, it discusses the power to a power rule, where exponents are multiplied when raising a power to another power.
