Determine smallest possible parameter set for FPT

Question

I am reading a book about complexity analysis and cannot find a way to solve a problem in that book. The problem is, that I do not understand how to determine the smallest possible parameters, given the runtime of an algorithm. Do I just need to insert some numbers and see if the parameters exceed n at some point? Perhaps someone can explain that to me.

Consider the following exercise:

The following O(.) expressions represent worst-case runtimes of different algorithms, where n is a measure of the input size and p, q and r are parameters (where p, q, r <= n). Which of the following running times are FPT running times? Give the smallest possible parameter set for which the running times are FPT (if one exists) and explain.

a) $O(p^q * n^2)$

Now I know that by the definition of FPT, this runtime is FPT (because we have a function of the parameters times n^constant). However, what are the smallest $p$ and $q$ in that case?

There are some more, but I just want to understand how to solve it and then I'll try the rest myself again.
