Abstract
This work is motivated by the work of Josip Pečarić in 2013 and 1982 and the work of Srivastava in 2017. By the utilization of the diamond- dynamic inequalities, which are defined as a linear mixture of the delta and nabla integrals, we present and prove very important generalized results of diamond- Steffensen-type inequalities on a general time scale. Symmetry plays an essential role in determining the correct methods to solve dynamic inequalities.
1. Introduction
In 1982, Pečarić [1] speculated on the Steffensen inequality, presenting the following two hypotheses.
Theorem 1.
Let , , be integrable functions on such that is nonincreasing and is non-negative. Further, let . Then,
where is the solution of the equation
We obtain the reverse of (1) if is nondecreasing.
Theorem 2.
Let , , be integrable functions on such that is nonincreasing and is non-negative. Further, let . Then,
where gives us the solution of
We obtain the reverse of (2) if is nondecreasing.
Wu and Srivastava in [2] acquired the accompanying result.
Theorem 3.
Let , , be integrable functions on such that is nonincreasing. Further, let . Then,
where is given by
The following interesting findings were published in [3].
Theorem 4.
Suppose the integrability of , , , such that is nonincreasing. Additionally, suppose that for all . Then,

Theorem 5.
Under the hypotheses of Theorem 4,
where is given by
The calculus of time scales with the intention to unify discrete and continuous analysis (see [4]) was proposed by Hilger [5]. For additional subtleties on time scales, we refer the reader to the book by Bohner and Peterson [6]. Additionally, understanding of diamond- calculus on time scales is assumed, and we refer the interested reader to [7] for further details.
Recently, a massive range of dynamic inequalities on time scales have been investigated by using exclusive authors who have been inspired with the aid of a few applications (see [8,9,10,11,12,13,14]). Some authors found different results regarding fractional calculus on time scales to provide associated dynamic inequalities (see [15,16,17,18]).
We devote the remaining part of this section to the diamond- calculus on time scales, and we refer the interested reader to [7] for further details.
If is a time scale, and is a function that is delta and nabla differentiable on , then, for any , the diamond- dynamic derivative of at ı, denoted by , is defined by
We conclude from the last relation that a function is diamond- differentiable if and only if it is both delta and nabla differentiable. For , the diamond- derivative boils down to a delta derivative, and for it boils down to a nabla derivative.

In this article, we explore new generalizations of the integral Steffensen inequality given in [1,2,3] via integral on general time scale measure space. We also retrieve some of the integral inequalities known in the literature as special cases of our tests.

3. Conclusions
In this article, we explore new generalizations of the integral Steffensen inequality given in [1,2,3] by the utilization of the diamond- dynamic inequalities which are used in various problems involving symmetry. We generalize a number of those inequalities to a general time scale measure space. In addition to this, in order to obtain some new inequalities as special cases, we also extend our inequalities to a discrete and constant calculus.
