An iPad can only send iMessages. To send an SMS or MMS text message you can only do that from an iPhone if you also have an iPhone. See: How to forward SMS/MMS text messages from your iPhone to your iPad, iPod touch or Mac - Apple Support

No iPad, alone, can send SMS text messages.
You need an iPad paired/tethered to an iPhone ( which CAN send and receive SMS messages ) using the message forwarding feature of an iPhone, to send SMS messages to an iPad, basically making an iPad a remote device to an iPhone.
Sorry & Good Luck!
Thanks
