If there's a sign, or a traffic light, that's another matter, but the way it's in the picture - car on the right has the right of way.
The rules in the US do differ, and frequently even differ among the various states. In California the vehicle code is clear that the car on the through street has the right-of-way even if the other car is coming from the right. I know the German law is the opposite - cars coming from the right have right-of-way over cars on a through street *in the absence of any signage*. But most through streets do have yellow signs indicating that traffic on them does have the right-of-way.
