Passing python variable to embedded shell script?

Question

I have an existing python code and i need to call a bash script from inside. The python code captures few variables and i need this to be passed to my shell to avoid duplicate input from user.

I have created a test script to simulate this, however, i am not able to echo the variables in shell ( it retuns a null )

1): Is it possible to pass the python variable to the shell script being called using subprocess? 2) If the below code can be optimized to achieve this, i am open to feedback.

Python code:

import os
import subprocess

first=input("Enter the first ip")
second=input("Enter the second IP")

subprocess.call(['bash','./script.sh',first,second])

Bash code (script.sh):

#!/bin/bash
###########################
echo "The First IP is $first"
echo "Enter your server "
read faulty_server
echo "The server is $faulty_server"

Answer 1

The 1st parameter in the Bash script is not called $first, but $1.

The 2nd parameter in the Bash script is not called $faulty_server, but $2.
