we have

[tex]r(x)=\frac{8}{3}x-16[/tex]

we know that

The zero of the function is the value of x when the function is equal to zero

so

Equate the function r(x) to zero and find the value of x

[tex]\frac{8}{3}x-16=0[/tex]

Adds [tex]16[/tex] both sides

[tex]\frac{8}{3}x-16+16=0+16[/tex]

[tex]\frac{8}{3}x=16[/tex]

Multiply by  [tex]3/8[/tex] both sides

[tex]x=16*\frac{3}{8}\\x=6[/tex]

therefore

the answer is the option C

[tex]6[/tex]
