I need to plot the sum of 2 sine curves. I can successfully plot (x,y1) and plot(x,y2), they are smooth curves, however when i try to plot(x,y) where y = y1+y2 the curve comes out like this? how do i fix this i dont know what i am doing wrong? Thanks

"...however when i try to plot... the curve comes out like this"
You are plotting lots of zeros (to within floating point precision), because that is exactly what you calculated.
"how do i fix this i dont know what i am doing wrong?"
You need to consider the B factor. Note that for a B which is an integer multiple of 2*pi (and you defined B as 4*pi, which is clearly a multiple of 2*pi), the following identity holds true:
sin(B*X) = -sin(B*(1-X))
For example:
B = 2*pi;
X = rand(1,9);
sin(B*X)
sin(B*(1-X))
That is why you are plotting zeros (or at least values very very very close to zero).

What you're looking at isn't meaningful. It's all just rounding error. You're essentially doing this:
y = sin(x) - sin(x);
I'm guessing there's some phase component that's not defined right yet, but I can't really guess at what you need it to be.
f = 2;
A = 1;
v = 1;
L = 1;
l = v/f;
B = (2*pi)/l;
w = 2*pi*f;
t = 0;
x = 0:0.0001:L;
z1 = A*sin(B*x - w*t);
z2 = A*sin(B*(L-x) - w*t);
y = z1+z2;
plot(x,z2); hold on
plot(x,z1);

For the future, please just paste your code using the code formatting tools. I had to retype all that and deal with the sub-pixel ambiguity differentiating the character '1' and 'l'.

clear all;
clc;
f = 2;
A = 1;
v = 1;
L = 1*(180/(pi));
l = v/f;
B = ((2*pi)/l)*(180/pi);
w = 2*pi*f;
t = 0;
x=0:0.0001:L;
z1 = (A*sind(B*x - w*t));
z2 = A*sind(B*(L-x) - w*t);
y=(z1+z2);
subplot(3,1,1);
plot(x,z1)
title('X,Z1')
axis([0 10 -1 1])
subplot(3,1,2);
plot(x,z2)
title('X,Z2')
axis([0 10 -1 1])
subplot(3,1,3);
plot(x,y)
title('X,Z1+Z2')
axis([0 10 -2 2])
