To simplify the expression \((5y - 1) + (-2y + 4)\), follow these steps:

  1. Remove the parentheses: \[ 5y - 1 - 2y + 4 \]

  2. Combine like terms:

    • Combine the \(y\) terms: \(5y - 2y = 3y\)
    • Combine the constant terms: \(-1 + 4 = 3\)
  3. Putting it all together, you get: \[ 3y + 3 \]

Therefore, the simplified expression is: \[ \boxed{3y + 3} \]
