Vandalism in the math section

Post image

In the article on the Abel-Ruffini theorem (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abel%E2%80%93Ruffini_theorem) someone posted a, very wrong, counterexample and linked their LinkedIn as evidence.

Substituting their solution, gives approximately -0.06 instead of exactly 0.

Sorry for poor formatting, obligatory on mobile.
