Four distinct integers are chosen uniformly at random from {1,2,…,12}\{1,2,\ldots,12\}. It is given that their sum is divisible by 33.

Let PP be the monic polynomial of degree 44 whose roots are the four chosen integers. What is the probability that both local minimum points of the graph y=P(x)y=P(x) have yy-coordinate −9-9?
