Don't do that. That question is a bit outdated.– MaccerDec 8, 2016 at 16:17

First, check what drivers are avaliable for your system:
sudo ubuntu-drivers devices | grep -o nvidia-[[:digit:]]*
Then install the one you want (replace XXX with the correct number):
sudo apt install nvidia-XXX
In case you have Optimus Technology you would also want to install this:
sudo apt install nvidia-prime
In case you want to fine tune your settings, is recommended to install nvidia-settings as well:
sudo apt install nvidia-settings
