In a basketball tournament, Team A scored 5 less than twice as many points as Team B. Team C scored 80 more

points than Team B. The combined score for all three teams was 983 points. Let the variable b represent Team B's
total points. The equation representing this scenario is (2b - 5) + b + (6 + 80) = 983. Team B scored 227 total points.
Which statement is true based on the information?
Team A scored 307 points.
Team C scored 307 points.
Team A scored twice as many points as Team C.
The sum of the points scored by the three teams is 841.
