how do I delete apps on my Mac?

I just want to know how to delete dowloaded apps to my Mac. I am not interested in many of them and hate having to download useless apps. Why is it Apple does not offer us the option of simply DELETING them instead of Updating them?

iMac, OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)

What are you downloading and what are you trying to delete? Apps that are installed via drag and drop can usually just be deleted the same way, drag them to the trash and empty. Apps installed through an installer package will usually have an uninstaller either included in the installer or on the developers web site. Contact the developer and use their instructions to uninstall.
