Answer: r > 1

Explanation:

Since there is no x in this I'm assuming we are looking for r

Step 1: Simplify both sides

15r - 26 > -13r + 2

Step 2: Add 13r to both sides

15r - 26 + 13r > -13r + 2 + 13r

28 - 26 > 2

Step 3: Add 26 on both sides

28 - 26 + 26 > 2 + 26

28r > 28

Step 4: Divide both sides by 28r / 28 > 28 / 28

r > 1

Hope this helped!
