You'll probably have to install maxima. As a plus for me, w/maxima I have 
the same thing on my pi, my desktop and my phone.

Matematicsa's notation feels awkward to me, but it's been a while. Is the 
capital S really required for Solve? Not solve?

And for a bit of math (Hey, the pi is nominally an educational system), 
writing it as

  -b     sqrt(b^2-4ac)
--- +/- -------------
  2a          2a

You have

-b/2a is the axis of symmetry & sqrt(b^2-4ac)/2a is the distance to the 
roots.
