Without access to the specific question with ID 3666527, I can provide some general advice on the most efficient first step to solve a system of linear equations with two variables.
1. **Identify the Equations**: Start by clearly writing down the two linear equations you need to solve.
2. **Choose a Method**: Determine a method based on the form of the equations:
- **Substitution**: If one equation is easily solvable for one variable.
- **Elimination**: If the coefficients of one of the variables in both equations are easily manipulatable (e.g., both are integers or can be made to match by multiplication).
- **Graphing**: If you need a visual understanding or if integer solutions are required.
3. **Isolate Variables (if using substitution)**: If you choose substitution, isolate one variable in one equation.
4. **Combine Equations (if using elimination)**: If you choose elimination, prepare to add or subtract equations to eliminate one variable.
5. **Solve for Variables**: Apply the chosen method to find the values of the variables.
If you provide the specific equations, I can give more tailored advice on the most efficient approach to solving them.
