Method Selection for Efficiency in Operational Modeling

In a corporate resource allocation analysis, a project manager identifies two different systems of linear equations to model project costs:

System 1: {y=2x1,  3x4y=6}\{y = 2x - 1,\; 3x - 4y = -6\} System 2: {6x2y=12,  3x+7y=13}\{6x - 2y = 12,\; 3x + 7y = -13\}

Based on algebraic efficiency strategies, which method (Substitution or Elimination) is the most convenient for solving System 1, and which is most convenient for System 2?
