A

`2^(n-1) A-(n-1)I`

B

`2^(n-1) A-I`

C

`nA-(n-1)I`

D

`nA-I`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Given, `A^(2)=2A-I`
Now, `A^(3)=A(A^(2))`
`=A (2A-I)`
`=2A^(2)-A`
`=2(2A-I)-A`
`=3A-2I`
`A^(4)=A(A^(3))`
`=A(3A-2I)`
`=3A^(2)-2A`
`=3(2A-I)-2A`
`=4A-3I`
Following this, we can say `A^(n)=nA-(n-1)I`.
