need help solving the equation

5y-14+7y-20y

I see no equation

sorry for calling it an equation i mean i have to simplify the expression

add the y terms, then -14

-8y - 14

-8y-14

To solve the given equation: 5y - 14 + 7y - 20y, we'll start by combining like terms.

Combining the terms with the variable y:
5y + 7y - 20y = 12y - 20y = -8y

Combining the constant terms:
-14

So the simplified equation becomes:
-8y - 14

And that's the final solution.
