Abstract:
The authors find the greatest value λ and the least value μ, such that the double inequality C(λa + (1-λb), λb+(1-λ)a) < αA(a, b) + (1-α)T(a,b) < C(μa + (1 - μ)b, μb + (1 - μ)a) holds for all α ∈ (0, 1) and a, b > 0 with a ≠ b, where C(a, b) = 2(a² + ab + b²)/3(a + b), A(a, b) = (a + b)/2, and T(a, b) = (a + b)/2, and T(a, b) = (2/π) ∫₀(π/2) √a²cos²θ + b²sin²θdθ denote, respectively, the centroidal, arithmetic, and Toader means of the two positive numbers a and b.

Central Tendency: Analysis
The mean is one such measure, calculated by totaling all values in a dataset and dividing by the number of values. For instance, the mean blood pressure reading (120, 130, 140, 150) would be 135. However, the mean can be affected by extreme values or outliers.

Harmonic Mean
Take the example of the speed of a car, which is the measure of the rate of distance traveled. If the vehicle traverses the same distance back-and-forth, its average speed equals the total distance traveled divided by the total time taken. However, if the car moves with varying speeds, then the arithmetic mean is more skewed...
Geometric Mean
In cases of multiplicative data, the geometric mean is used for statistical analysis. First, the product of all the elements is taken. Then, if there are n elements in the...
