The correct answer is:
(A) and (R) are both true, (R) is correct explanation of (A)
If $f(x)$ is a differentiable function then $f(x)$ will be also continuous at that point necessarily. Hence reason ' $\mathrm{R}$ ' 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 $x=a$.
