Note that the statement holds if $R$ is a field. Now consider the localization of $R[x]$ at $R$, which is a polynomial ring over the field $K(R)$, where $K(R)$ is the field of fractions of $R$. Since $Pcap R={0}$, $P$ is still a prime ideal. It is easy to show that any kind proper inclusion $Qsubset P$ of prime ideals will hold in $K(R)[x]$. Hence the height of $P$ in $R[x]$ and in $K(R)[x]$ are the same. The latter one is at most one and the result follows.
