Use the information given to build a linear equation model, then use the equation to respond.

Parallel/nonparallel roads: Aberville is 38 mi north and 12 mi west of Boschertown, with a straight “farm and machinery” road (FM 1960) connecting the two cities. In the next county, Crownsburg is 30 mi north and 9.5 mi west of Dower, and these cities are likewise connected by a straight road (FM 830). If the two roads continued indefinitely in both directions, would they intersect at some point?
