30.1-4
The answer talks about adding a point (x, y) where y \neq A(x), but I'm pretty sure the question is about adding a point (x, A(x)) where x is already in the set of point-value pairs. In that case, theorem 30.1 tells us that the Vandermonde matrix has determinant zero and is thus non-invertible.
