A system is represented in state-space form as follows:

(u: input, $x$ : state vector, $y$ : output)

$$ \begin{aligned} & \dot{x}=\left[\begin{array}{cc} 1 & 2 \\ -3 & 0 \end{array}\right] x+\left[\begin{array}{l} 1 \\ 2 \end{array}\right] u \\ & y=\left[\begin{array}{ll} 1 & 2 \end{array}\right] x \end{aligned} $$

Consider the new state vector $z=\left[\begin{array}{cc}2 & 1 \\ -1 & 0\end{array}\right] x$
