Based on the calculations, the equation for the locus of these points is equal to x² + y² = 9.

<h3>How to find the locus of a point?</h3>

First of all, we would determine the distance between points A and B as follows:

Distance = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]

Distance = √[(-3 - 3)² + (0 - 0)²]

Distance = √[-9² + 0]

Distance = √81

Distance = 9.

Four (4) times the distance between points A and B​ is given by:

Distance = 9 × 4

Distance = 36.

Translating the word problem into a mathematical expression, we have:

a² + b² = 36

Also, from the distance formula we have:

a = √[(h + 3)² + (k - 0)²]

a² = h² + 6h + 9 + k²    

Similarly, b² is given by:

b = √[(h - 3)² + (k - 0)²]

b² = h² - 6h + 9 + k²

Equating the equations, we have:

a² + b² = 36

h² + 6h + 9 + k² + h² - 6h + 9 + k² = 36

2h² + 2k² = 36 - 18

2h² + 2k² = 18

Dividing both sides by 2, we have:

h² + k² = 9   ⇒ x² + y² = 9.
