You can put this solution on YOUR website!
the graph will be the same as y = 16x once you simplify the equation.

the graph looks like this:

graph+%28600%2C600%2C-10%2C10%2C-90%2C90%2C6x%2B10x%29

you graph it like you would any other graph.

you pick values of x and you solve for y.

if you pick x = 0, they y = 0

if you pick x = 3, then 16*x = 16*3 = 48

note that y = 6x + 10x becomes y = 6*3 + 10*3 = 18 + 30 = 48 (same answer).
