Let AAA be a 2×22 \times 22×2 symmetric matrix such that A[11]=[37]A\left[\begin{array}{l}1 \\ 1\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{l}3 \\ 7\end{array}\right]A[11​]=[37​] and the determinant of AAA be 1 . If A−1=αA+βIA^{-1}=\alpha A+\beta IA−1=αA+βI, where III is an identity matrix of order 2×22 \times 22×2, then α+β\alpha+\betaα+β equals _______
