We give the best lower bound for the weighted Jensen’s discrete inequality with ordered variables applied to a convex function f, in the case when the lower bound depends on f, weights, and two given variables. Furthermore, under the same conditions, we give some sharp lower bounds for the weighted AM-GM inequality and AM-HM inequality. 1. Introduction Let x  {x 1 ,x 2 , ,x n } be a sequence of real numbers belonging to an interval I,andlet p  {p 1 ,p 2 , ,p n } be a sequence of given positive weights associated to x and satisfying p 1  p 2  ··· p n  1.
