A more polite way to ask in the event of urgency would be something like:
"I really need help on this one, time is a factor!"
a =[2:6 17:22]
for i=1:length(a)
y=2*a(i)
end
Or if you want to do it without a loop use vector form, which is generally more efficient in MATLAB:
a =[2:6 17:22];
y=2.*a;

It's better to avoid the variable i, because it's used by Matlab with complex numbers.
for ii= [2:6,17:22]
Y= 2*ii;
end

for i = [2:6,17:22]
Y = 2*i;
end
Note that you are overwriting Y completely each time, which is a common error in for loops. When you are looping over values that are not consecutive integers and you want to get one output value for each input value then use something like
ivals = [2:6,17:22];
for k = 1 : length(ivals);
i = ivals(k);
Y(k) = 2 * i;
end
