Let's simplify the expression step by step:
The expression is:
\[
-4.08 \div 1.2 - (-4.2) \times 1.5
\]
1. **Calculate \(-4.08 \div 1.2\)**:
\[
-4.08 \div 1.2 = -3.4
\]
2. **Calculate \((-4.2) \times 1.5\)**:
\[
-4.2 \times 1.5 = -6.3
\]
Now, since we're subtracting a negative, this will turn into addition:
\[
- (-6.3) = +6.3
\]
3. **Combine the results**:
\[
-3.4 + 6.3 = 2.9
\]
So, the simplified expression is:
\[
\boxed{2.9}
\]
