Let the circle \(x^2 + y^2 = 2ax + 2by\) intersect the \(x\)-axis at point \(A(\alpha, 0)\) and \(y\)-axis at point \(B(0, \beta)\), where \(\alpha\beta \neq 0\). If the point \(C(p, q)\) lies on the chord AB, then \(\frac{p+\alpha}{a} + \frac{q+\beta}{b}\) equals

If \(A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}\), then the determinant of \(A + A^2 + A^3 + \cdots + A^{13}\) is
