(A) Given $A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 \ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$.We calculate the powers of $A$:$A^2 = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 \ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 \ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 \ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$.$A^3 = A^2 \cdot A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 \ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 \ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 3 \ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$.By observation,$A^n = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & n \ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$.Now,check option $A$: $nA - (n-1)I = n \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 \ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix} - (n-1) \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$$= \begin{bmatrix} n & n \ 0 & n \end{bmatrix} - \begin{bmatrix} n-1 & 0 \ 0 & n-1 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} n-(n-1) & n-0 \ 0-0 & n-(n-1) \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & n \ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix} = A^n$.Thus,the correct relation is $A^n = nA - (n-1)I$.

If $I$ is the identity matrix of order $2$ and $A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$,then for $n \geq 1$,mathematical induction gives
