Assertion (A): If f ( x ) is not continuous at x = a , then it is not differentiable at x=a Reason (R): If f(x) is differentiable at a point, then it is continuous at that point
Options
- A(A) and (R) are both true, (R) is correct explanation of (A)
- B(A) and (R) are both true, (R) is not correct explanation of (A)
- C(A) is true, (R) is false
- D(A) is false, ( R ) is true
Correct answer
A. (A) and (R) are both true, (R) is correct explanation of (A)
Step-by-step solution
If f(x) is a differentiable function then f(x) will be also continuous at that point necessarily. Hence reason ' R ' is correct. Above concept also means that if f(x) is not continuous at any point x=a then f(x) will not be differentiable at x=a .
