chebyshev's inequality - Question
I had a question in my exam and they asked to prove that
prove that:
$$3(1+a^2+a^4)geq(1+a+a^2)^2$$ for all $ainmathbb R$.
Now , I solved it , but the problem is that in the answer they wrote this:
using Chebyshev inequality:
$$(1+a+a^2)^2=(1·1+a·1+a^2·1)^2≤(1+a^2+a^4)·(1+1+1)=3(1+a^2+a^4).$$
And so I tried searching the web for this inequality but all it found was the Chebyshev's inequality for probabillity.
can someone please send me link regarding this inequality or just write it here?
Thank you.

It's just C-S:
$$3(1+a^2+a^4)=(1+1+1)(1+a^2+a^4)geq(1+a+a^2)^2.$$
The Chebyshov inequality it's the following.
Let $a_1geq a_2geq...geq a_n$ and $b_1geq b_2geq...geq b_n$.
Thus, $$nsum_{k=1}^na_kb_{n-k+1}leqsum_{k=1}^na_ksum_{k=1}^nb_kleq nsum_{k=1}^na_kb_k.$$
The proof of this inequality follows immediately from Rearrangement.
There is also the following way:
$$(1+a^2+a^4)=(1+2a^2+a^4-a^2)=((1+a^2)^2-a^2)=(1-a+a^2)(1+a+a^2).$$
Id est, it's enough to prove that:
$$3(1-a+a^2)geq1+a+a^2$$ or
$$(a-1)^2geq0.$$

It's just C-S:
$$3(1+a^2+a^4)=(1+1+1)(1+a^2+a^4)geq(1+a+a^2)^2.$$
The Chebyshov inequality it's the following.
Let $a_1geq a_2geq...geq a_n$ and $b_1geq b_2geq...geq b_n$.
Thus, $$nsum_{k=1}^na_kb_{n-k+1}leqsum_{k=1}^na_ksum_{k=1}^nb_kleq nsum_{k=1}^na_kb_k.$$
The proof of this inequality follows immediately from Rearrangement.
There is also the following way:
$$(1+a^2+a^4)=(1+2a^2+a^4-a^2)=((1+a^2)^2-a^2)=(1-a+a^2)(1+a+a^2).$$
Id est, it's enough to prove that:
$$3(1-a+a^2)geq1+a+a^2$$ or
$$(a-1)^2geq0.$$
