The first assignment is overly complicated.  The extra input functions are
useless.  There is no loopback to check the input.  Also, input returns
a string not an int or float.  Try this:

x = ["17","18","19","20"]
answer = None
print("How old are you: 17, 18, 19, or 20?")
while answer not in x:
    answer = input("> ")
    if answer in x:
        print("Wow, you are old!")
    else:
        print("You just can't follow drections, can you? Choose either 17, 18, 19, or 20.")

Keep in mind that the above code does not give you a way out.
One of the expected numbers must be entered.

I'll leave the second one for you to figure out.
