A) $\frac { 7 } { 10 } z - \frac { 48 } { 5 }$
B) $\frac { 7 } { 10 } z + \frac { 48 } { 5 }$
C) $- \frac { 7 } { 10 } z + \frac { 48 } { 5 }$
D) $\frac { 1 } { 2 } z + 16$

First, distribute $-\frac{3}{5}$ across $z - 16$ to get $-\frac{3}{5}z + \frac{48}{5}$. Then, combine this with $-\frac{1}{10}z$ to get $-\frac{7}{10}z + \frac{48}{5}$.
