Rewriting the equation of the given line in slope-intercept form,
[tex]-x-4y=1\\\\-4y=x+1\\\\4y=-x-1\\\\y=-\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
From this, we know the slope of the given line is -1/4.
Since parallel lines have the same slope, we know the line whose equation we want to find has a slope of -1/4.
Substituting into point-slope form,
[tex]y=-\frac{1}{4}(x+4)\\\\\boxed{y=-\frac{1}{4}x-1}[/tex]
