[Tex/LaTex] Matrix format in Latex

Question

How can a matrix be written in LaTeX? I have tried to use \begin{matrix} but I need to write the matrix below and I cannot understand how to fill it up exactly as this.

Answer 1

MWE:

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}

\begin{document}
\begin{equation*}
Q = 
\begin{pmatrix}
    -(\lambda_1 + \mu_1) & \lambda_1 & 0 & \ldots & 0 & 0 \\
    0 & -(\lambda_2 + \mu_2) & \lambda_2 & \ldots & 0 & 0 \\
    \vdots & \vdots & \vdots & \ldots & 0 & 0 \\
    0 & 0 & 0 & -(\lambda_{n-1} + \mu_{n-1}) & \lambda_{n-1} & \\
    0 & 0 & 0 & \ldots & 0 & -\mu_n
\end{pmatrix}
\end{equation*}
\end{document}
