Dear friends, If function is differentiable then it must be continuous 
 i.e. function is continuous at x=1 then a+b+c=1 ….... (1)
Function is differentiable at x=1 then 2a+b=1  ….........(2)
And also we say that this function differentiable at x=0 then b=0 …..(3)
Solving the equations (1),(2) and (3), we can get the value of tiplet(a, b, c) is (1/2, 0, 1/2).
