y(6 + y) = 10
(6 * y + y * y) = 10
(6y + y2) = 10

Solving
6y + y2 = 10

Solving for variable 'y'.

Reorder the terms:
-10 + 6y + y2 = 10 + -10

Combine like terms: 10 + -10 = 0
-10 + 6y + y2 = 0

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '10' to each side of the equation.
-10 + 6y + 10 + y2 = 0 + 10

Reorder the terms:
-10 + 10 + 6y + y2 = 0 + 10

Combine like terms: -10 + 10 = 0
0 + 6y + y2 = 0 + 10
6y + y2 = 0 + 10

Combine like terms: 0 + 10 = 10
6y + y2 = 10

The y term is 6y.  Take half its coefficient (3).
Square it (9) and add it to both sides.

Add '9' to each side of the equation.
6y + 9 + y2 = 10 + 9
