Final answer:

Without additional information, we can only determine that for point P with x = -(2/7) in the second quadrant, y would be greater than 0 since y-coordinates in quadrant two are positive.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student's question is about finding the y-coordinate for a point P located in the second quadrant with a given x-coordinate of -(2/7). In the second quadrant, both the x and y coordinates are related by the understanding that x is negative and y is positive. Without additional information about the point P, such as distance from the origin or a relation defining y in terms of x, it is impossible to determine the exact y-coordinate. We can only say that y > 0 given the quadrant information.
