Homework Statement



If f is differentiable at x then f is continues at x

Any help would be great.

I can prove like this:

(sorry I don't know how to make look fancy)



lim f(a+h) - f(a)/h = f'(a)
h->0

lim [f(a+h) - f(a)/h]*h = f'(a)*(h=0)
h->0

lim f(a+h) - f(a) = 0
h->0

lim [f(a+h) - f(a)]+f(a) = 0+f(a)
h->0

x= a+h h=x-ah

lim f(x) = f(a)
x->a
