The video tutorial explains how to graph solutions to a system of quadratic inequalities. It covers solving each inequality, graphing the corresponding parabolas, and identifying the solution region. The first inequality results in a solid parabola, while the second results in a dashed parabola. The tutorial details finding the axis of symmetry, vertex, and intercepts for each parabola, and emphasizes shading the correct regions to represent solutions. The final solution is the double-shaded region where both inequalities overlap.
