Y= number of gadgets
-240x = 720 - y
-240x= 720 - 30,000
-240x / -240 = -29280 / -240
x = 122
122 gadgets can be produced

Simple.
y = 30000
y = 240x + 720
30000 = 240x + 720
30000 - 720 = 240x
(30000 - 720) / 240 = x
x = 122

over here the number of gadgets that can be produced with $ y is 240x + 720. thus we know according to given data that y is $30,000.
plugging it in the eqation will give us the value of x which is the number of gadgets needed. thus all you have to plug in your calculater is (30000-720)/240. whic is equal to 122.
