How to have Apple Script ask me for IP to use and then runs the command with that IP

Here is what I have so far.

tell application "Terminal"
    activate
    do script "nmap -oN scan.txt -p 3306 10.0.69.11"
end tell

What i want to be able to do is have Apple Script ask me for a IP address to run, and I type in the IP Address and it will change the command to use that IP, and runs the command.

If you are simply looking for how to use string interpolation in AppleScript... try:

set userResponse to text returned of (display dialog "Enter IP" default answer "10.0.69.11")

tell application "Terminal"
    if not (exists window 1) then reopen
    activate
    do script "nmap -oN scan.txt -p 3306 " & userResponse & " ;" in window 1
end tell
