I think you mean x squared. We use Shift-6 for that: f(x) = x^2. An equation with 2 as the highest power is a parabola. You can go to wikipedia.org and type that word in the box and get a long explanation of everything that is known about that function. The minimum is called the vertex. It's here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabola#Coordinates_of_the_vertex
