We prove weaker conditions for Steffensen type inequalities obtained by Masjed-Jamei, Qi and Srivastava. Moreover, we extend these inequalities to the class of convex functions. Further, we give an application of new inequalities to obtain Stolarsky type means.
Mathematics SubjectClassification. Primary 26D15; Secondary 26A51. The well-known Steffensen inequality reads, [10]: Theorem 0.1. Suppose that f is nonincreasing and g is integrable on [a, b] with 0 ≤ g ≤ 1 and λ = b a g(t)dt. Then we haveThe inequalities are reversed for f nondecreasing.In [5] Masjed-Jamei, Qi and Srivastava obtained the following Steffensen type inequalities:Theorem 0.2. If f and g are integrable functions such that f is nonincreasing andon (a, b), where q = 0 and
