Let $A=(1, 2)$,$B=(2, 1)$,and $C=(-1, -1)$ be three points. If $P(x, y)$ is a point such that the area of the quadrilateral $PABC$ is twice the area of the triangle $PAB$,then the equation of the locus of $P$ is:

  • A
    $8x^2-14xy+3y^2-18x+22y+7=0$
  • B
    $9x^2-12xy+4y^2-24x+16y+16=0$
  • C
    $x^2+2xy+y^2-6x-6y+9=0$
  • D
    $3x^2-10xy+3y^2-2x+14y-7=0$
