Put the second equation into slope-intercept form. Now compare the slopes of the two equations.
The slope of this equation is -(1/4), and slope of the first equation, already given in slope-intercept form, is -4.

What is their product?
YES, the equations are perpendicular. (product of the two slopes is Negative One).
