Answer:

Neither.

Explanation:

The slope for the first one is 1/4 and the slope for the second one is 4. These are reciprocals, but not opposite reciprocals, meaning they are not perpendicular. An opposite reciprocal means the fraction is flipped (ex. 3/1 to 1/3) and the sign is changed. The line parallel to y=1/4x would be y= -4x.
