If the family of curves $y = a e^{4x} + b e^{-x}$, where $a, b$ are arbitrary constants, represents the general solution of the differential equation $f(x, y, \frac{dy}{dx}, \frac{d^2y}{dx^2}) = 0$, then find $\frac{df}{dx}$.

  • A
    $\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} - 3\frac{dy}{dx} - 4y$
  • B
    $\frac{d^3y}{dx^3} - 3\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} - 4\frac{dy}{dx}$
  • C
    $\frac{d^3y}{dx^3} - \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} - 3\frac{dy}{dx} + 2$
  • D
    $\frac{d^3y}{dx^3} - \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} + 3$
