It's also important to note that the argument on the left is positive and the argument on the right is negative, which may complicate things. In summary, the conversation involves finding the value of d in a complex equation involving the Ai function and algebraic manipulation. The process may take some time and effort, and the arguments on each side of the equation may cause some complications.

Quick question. I'm not even sure if what I've done so far is right, but if it is, then I have
[tex]"Ai" ((s^{2/3} d)/z_0 )= "Ai" ( -s^{2/3} ) e^{-1}[/tex]
and I want to find out what d is. Is there a simple way to disentagle this? d is greater than z_0, and s is positive, so this gives me a positive argument on the left, and negative on the right if that helps. I don't expect an answer back in time as this is due in not very long, but it's one of the few things that I've really been stumped on, and hoping someone can get back to me in time. Cheers. :)

Unfortunately, there's no simple way to disentangle this equation. In order to find the value of d, you will need to use algebraic manipulation to isolate the d term. It's possible to do this, but it may take some time and effort depending on the complexity of the equation.
