If the distance of a variable point $P(x, y)$ from a point $A(2, -2)$ is twice the distance of $P$ from the $Y$-axis,then the equation of the locus of $P$ is:

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