If $f(x) = \begin{cases} \frac{1}{|x|}, & |x| \geq 1 \\ ax^2 + b, & -1 < x < 1 \end{cases}$ is differentiable $\forall x \in \mathbb{R}$,then one of the values of $a$ and $b$ is-

  • A
    $a = \frac{1}{2}, b = \frac{-3}{2}$
  • B
    $a = \frac{-1}{2}, b = \frac{3}{2}$
  • C
    $a = \frac{3}{2}, b = \frac{1}{2}$
  • D
