Let \(\mathrm{A}=(1,2), \mathrm{B}=(2,1), \mathrm{C}=(-1,-1)\) be three points. If \(\mathrm{P}\) is a point such that the area of the quadrilateral \(\mathrm{PABC}\) is twice the area of the triangle \(\mathrm{PAB}\), then the equation of the locus of \(\mathrm{P}\) is

  1. A \(8 x^2-14 x y+3 y^2-18 x+22 y+7=0\)
  2. B \(9 x^2-12 x y+4 y^2-24 x+16 y+16=0\)
  3. C \(x^2+2 x y+y^2-6 x-6 y+9=0\)
  4. D \(x^2-4 x y+8 y-4=0\)
