real analysis - derivative of a function has only 2nd kind discontinuities



How would I be able to show the following claim



If f is differentiable with a finite derivative in an interval, then at all points f(t) is either continuous or has a discontinuity of the second kind. By just chasing definitions, I can boil the problem down to whether or not one is able to switch the limits in the following limstlim. Any help would be highly appreciated.


Answer



Derivative of a function satisfies Intermediate Value Property so the only discontinuity a derivative can have is of the second kind.
