Hi, my client asked me to design an 80" x 80" banner for them. The image is taken from the internet and they asked me to put some text on the right side of the image. What should be the resolution for the image? and PPI?

What is the size of your image?  What is the size of your document? I mean , your Illustrator file? Is it 100%?

amm,

The image is taken from the internet

Unless it has proven to be so already, it may be convenient to make sure that the use of that image is both lawful and appropriate.

This is a question you absolutely need to ask the printing service bureau. It depends on their machines and how this banner will be presented. Both we don't know. Ask them.

At full size for a banner that big I would suggest 100 ppi at full size.
