    The author proves the following result: If f is a strictly increasing [resp. decreasing] continuous function on \([a,b],\quad 0<a<b,\) having a logarithmically convex inverse function, then \[ (1)\quad (b-a)^{- 1}\int^{b}_{a}f(x)dx\leq [resp.\quad \geq]f(I(a,b)), \] where I(a,b) (the so-called ``identric-mean'') is defined by \(I(a,b)=e^{-1}\cdot (b^ b/a^ a)^{1/(b-a)}\) for \(a\neq b\), \(I(a,a)=a\). He also gives an interesting application for \textit{K. B. Stolarsky}'s means [Math. Mag. 48, 87-92 (1975; Zbl 0302.26003)].
