Abstract

In this paper we derive some optimal convex combination bounds related to arithmetic mean. We find the greatest values ${\alpha}_1$ and ${\alpha}_2$ and the least values ${\beta}_1$ and ${\beta}_2$ such that the double inequalities $${\alpha}_1T(a,b)+(1-{\alpha}_1)H(a,b)<A(a,b)<{\beta}_1T(a,b)+(1-{\beta}_1)H(a,b)$$ and $${\alpha}_2T(a,b)+(1-{\alpha}_2)G(a,b)<A(a,b)<{\beta}_2T(a,b)+(1-{\beta}_2)G(a,b)$$ holds for all a,b > 0 with $a{\neq}b$. Here T(a,b), H(a,b), A(a,b) and G(a,b) denote the second Seiffert, harmonic, arithmetic and geometric means of two positive numbers a and b, respectively.
