Denise makes bracelets. The cost for beads for each bracelet is $7. She increases the price of each bracelet to earn a profit. She sold 12 bracelets and earned $120.

Let x = the amount of increase

The equation that models this situation is:

12(7 + x) = 120

How much did Denise increase the price of each bracelet?
