To simplify the expression \((5y - 1) + (-2y + 4)\), we can start by removing the parentheses:

\[
5y - 1 - 2y + 4
\]

Next, we will combine the like terms. The like terms here are the \(y\) terms and the constant terms:

1. Combine the \(y\) terms:
\[
5y - 2y = 3y
\]

2. Combine the constant terms:
\[
-1 + 4 = 3
\]

Putting it all together, we get:

\[
3y + 3
\]

Thus, the simplified expression is:

\[
\boxed{3y + 3}
\]
