If a function f is differentiable at a point x, then it is also continuous at that point x. This conclusion is established using the epsilon-delta definition of continuity. The proof involves demonstrating that the limit of the difference quotient approaches the derivative f'(a) as h approaches 0, leading to the conclusion that the limit of f(x) as x approaches a equals f(a).
