Let $A=(2,0)$ and $B=(0,-2)$. Let $P$ be any point such that the sum of the distances of $P$ from $A$ and $B$ is $4$. Then the equation of the locus of the point $P$ is

  • A
    $3x^2-2xy+3y^2-4x+12y+16=0$
  • B
    $3x^2-2xy+3y^2-8x+8y=0$
  • C
    $3x^2+2xy+3y^2+8x-8y=0$
  • D
    $3x^2+2xy+3y^2+4x-12y+16=0$
