# Math Help - Leslie Matrix

1. ## Leslie Matrix

I have a difficulty to solve this problem. I wonder how am i going to find a matrix factor that if i multiply it by a 12x12 leslie matrix, will give me almost the same leslie matrix but doubled the breeding rate. this is the Leslie Matrix 1:

and this is what we should get after multiplying a matrix factor to L1:
L2:
oh please i really need it 2 days from now

I'm not sure that I understand what you are asking for, what is wrong with:

$
\left[ \begin{array}{cc}2&{\bf{0}}_{1\times 11}\\
{\bf{0}}_{11 \times 1}&{\bf{I}}_{11 \times 11} \end{array}
\right]
$
