          |  |  | Abstract: |  Using probability theory methods, the following sharp inequality is established: where  ,  and  for  . Upon taking  in the above inequality, the inequalities obtained in [F. Qi, Inequalities between the sum of squares and the exponential of sum of a nonnegative sequence, J. Inequal. Pure Appl. Math. 8(3) (2007), Art. 78 are refined. |
