Step-by-step explanation:

Options B and C are wrong because 0 as a numerator is totally fine as a real solution.

In Option A,

15(x² - 1) = 10(3x - 3)

15x² - 45x + 30 = 0

x² - 3x + 2 = 0

(x - 1)(x - 2) = 0

x = 1 or x = 2.

This is correct as x cannot be 1 (dividing by zero).

In Option D,

(x + 2)(x - 1) = 40

x² + x - 42 = 0

(x - 6)(x + 7) = 0

x = 6 or x = -7.

In here x = 1 does not even appear in our working so it is not an extraneous solution (even though it is dividing by zero)

Hence the answer is A.
