A rod of length eight units moves such that its ends $A$ and $B$ always lie on the lines $x-y+2=0$ and $y+2=0$, respectively. If the locus of the point $P$, that divides the $\operatorname{rod} AB$ internally in the ratio $2: 1$ is $9\left(x^2+\alpha y^2+\beta x y+\gamma x+28 y\right)-76=0$, then $\alpha-\beta-\gamma$ is equal to :
