A loop is not necessary.
If you have R2016b or later, try this (using your own variable vectors):
t = linspace(0, 2, 750); % Time Vector
a = 1:10; % Amplitude Vector
f = linspace(1000, 2000, numel(a)); % Frequency Vector
th = linspace(-pi, pi, numel(a)); % Phase Vector
y = sum(a(:).*sin(2*pi*f(:)*t + th(:))); % Compute Function, Then Take Sum Of Rows
figure
plot(t, y)
grid
This uses automatic implicit expansion, introduced in R2016b. If you have an earlier version:
y = sum(bsxfun(@times, a(:), sin(2*pi*f(:)*t + th(:)))); % Compute Function, Then Take Sum Of Rows
produces the same result.

This can be done like
y=0; %necessary to add the other things
for i=1:length(a)
y=y+a(i).*sind(2*pi*f(i).*t+theta(i));
end
If this works accept this answer but
if this does not work tell the error/other requirements in comment
