If $f(x)$ is differentiable on $(a, b)$, which of the following must be true? I. $f(x)$ is continuous on $(a, b)$ II. $f(x)$ is defined for all $x$ in $[a, b]$ III. There exists a point $c$ in $[a, b]$ such that $f(c) = 0$ a. I b. II c. III d. All of these are true.

Which of the following would be a counterexample to the statement: "If $f$ is differentiable at $x=a$ then $f$ is continuous at $x=a " ?$ (a) A function which is not differentiable at $x=a$ but is continuous at $x=a$ (b) A function which is not continuous at $x=a$ but is differentiable at $x=a$ (c) A function which is both continuous and differentiable at $x=a$ (d) A function which is neither continuous nor differentiable at $x=a$

Differentiability
Explain why or why not Determine whether the following statements are true and give an explanation or counterexample. a. If the function $f$ is differentiable for all values of $x,$ then $f$ is continuous for all values of $x$ b. The function $f(x)=|x+1|$ is continuous for all $x$, but not differentiable for all $x$. c. It is possible for the domain of $f$ to be $(a, b)$ and the domain of $f^{\prime}$ to be $[a, b]$
