Let $A$ be a $2 \times 2$ symmetric matrix such that $A \begin{bmatrix} 1 \\ 1 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 3 \\ 7 \end{bmatrix}$ and the determinant of $A$ is $1$. If $A^{-1} = \alpha A + \beta I$,where $I$ is an identity matrix of order $2 \times 2$,then $\alpha + \beta$ equals:

  • A
    $5$
  • B
    $6$
  • C
    $7$
  • D
    $9$
