Max,
You've made the arguments a string (so never a number) in:
print "The answer is: " + str(x+y)

That has nothing to do with the issue. The str() function call is
unnecessary, but harmless. If the two values x and y are ints or
floats, they will get added in the obvious way long before being
converted to str().
If they are already strings, they'll be concatenated long before str()
does a null conversion on the resultant string.
The problem, as I stated in my own response, is that the if statement
does nothing useful for checking of types.
