thank you guys!!
thanks for the tips, yep it is address not adress, my mistake 
, its better the way you wrote the script, but i still have a problem with the if conditional.
when it compares the ping results it executes both sentences and writes:
148.202.15.70 is alive
148.202.15.70 is dead
there has to be something wrong with that if, i dont know what it is exaclty...
i have also tried comparing strings with the same mistake, i dont know why it executes both commands...
pong=$ipadr" is alive"
alive=`ping $ipadr`
if (test "$pong"="$alive")
any idea of what's wrong this if?

check-hostname
check-hostname(1M) System Administration Commands check-hostname(1M) NAME
check-hostname - check if sendmail can determine the system's fully-qualified host name SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/check-hostname DESCRIPTION
The check-hostname script is a migration aid for sendmail(1M). This script tries to determine the local host's fully-qualified host name (FQHN) in a manner similar to sendmail(1M). If check-hostname is able to determine the FQHN of the local host, it reports success. Other- wise, check-hostname reports how to reconfigure the system so that the FQHN can be properly determined.
