<s>[INST] Prove $\frac{x+y}{z}+\frac{y+z}{x}+\frac{z+x}{y}\ge 4(\frac{z}{x+y}+\frac{x}{y+z}+\frac{y}{z+x})$ with Popoviciu's inequality. I want to prove the inequality $$\frac{x+y}{z}+\frac{y+z}{x}+\frac{z+x}{y}\ge 4(\frac{z}{x+y}+\frac{x}{y+z}+\frac{y}{z+x})$$, for positive reals. I have a hint that it is solved with Popoviciu's inequality applied to $f(x)=x+\frac{1}{x}$. I can show the the function $f$ is convex. Moreover, I see that the LHS of the inequality can be expressed as $f(\frac{x}{y})+f(\frac{x}{z})+f(\frac{z}{y})$. There are other representations as we can choose $2^3=8$ different ways to express the LHS as the sum of $f$'s. However, none of these seem to lead to the desired inequality. I considered rewriting the Popoviciu's inequality as $$f(a)+f(b)+f(c)\ge 2(f(\frac{a+b}{2})+f(\frac{a+c}{2})+f(\frac{b+c}{2}) - \frac{3}{2}f(\frac{a+b+c}{3}))$$, where $a,b,c$ equal $x/y, x/z, z/y$ respectively.
However, it doesn't seem to be the solution. After simplifying the RHS becomes: $$\frac{4}{a+b}+\frac{4}{a+c}+\frac{4}{b+c}-\frac{9}{a+b+c}+a+b+c$$.
Trying slightly different $a, b, c$, namely $x/z, y/z, y/x$ still gives the same result that I can't simplify further. Note, however, that in this case $\frac{1}{a+b}=\frac{z}{x+y}$.
I thought that maybe the RHS of my Popoviciu's inequality can be shown to be greater than or equal than the desired inequality, but I couldn't come up with anything.
 [/INST] We dont really need Popoviciu's Inequality here,Basically use the following lemma.
If $x,y,z>0\in \mathbb{R}$ $$\dfrac{x}{y}+\dfrac{x}{z}\geq \dfrac{4x}{y+z}$$
Proof : Note that this is equivalent to $x\left(\dfrac{1}{y}+\dfrac{1}{z}-\dfrac{4}{y+z}\right)\Longleftrightarrow\dfrac{x(y-z)^2}{yz(y+z)}\geq 0$ which is clearly true.
Back to the original problem using our lemma we have $$\dfrac{y+z}{x}+\dfrac{z+x}{y}+\dfrac{x+y}{z}=\left(\dfrac{x}{y}+\dfrac{x}{z}\right)+\left(\dfrac{y}{z}+\dfrac{y}{x}\right)+\left(\dfrac{z}{x}+\dfrac{z}{y}\right)\geq \dfrac{4x}{y+z}+\dfrac{4y}{z+x}+\dfrac{4z}{x+y}$$
