KLARICIC BAKULA A. MATKOVIC AND J. PECARIC Received 19 December 2005 Accepted 2 April 2006 Several variants of Cebysev s inequality for two monotonic n-tuples and also k 3 nonnegative n-tuples monotonic in the same direction are presented. Immediately after that their refinements of Ostrowski s type are given. Obtained results are used to prove generalizations of discrete Milne s inequality and its converse in which weights satisfy conditions as in the Jensen-Steffensen inequality. Copyright 2006 M.

Introduction In 2003 Mercer gave the following interesting variant of the discrete Jensen s inequality see . 8 page 43 for convex functions. Theorem 4 Theorem 1 . If f is a convex function on an interval containing n-tuple x x1 . Xn such that 0 X1 X2 Xn and w w1 . wn is positive n-tuple with n 1 Wi 1 then f X1 Xn n n - WiXij f X1 f Xn - Wif Xi . Two years later his result was generalized as it is stated below. Theorem 1 Theorem 2 . Let a b be an interval in R a b. Let x x1 . Xn be a monotonic n-tuple in a b n and let w w1 . wn be a real n-tuple such that 0 Wk Wn k 1 . n - 1 Wn 0 Hindawi Publishing Corporation Journal ofInequalities and Applications Volume 2006 Article ID 39692 Pages 1-13 DOI JIA 2006 39692 2 Variants of Cebysev s inequality with applications where Wk S 1 wi k 1 n .

Remark . It can be easily proved that for a real n-tuple w which satisfies and for any monotonic n-tuple x e a b n the inequalities 1 n a - W
