We present easily verifiable sufficient conditions for the existence of at least one solution, and at least three solutions of this problem. We also give two examples to illustrate the importance of our results.en10.14232/ejqtde.2015.1.62info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessthree-point boundary value problemlower and upper solutionshalf-lineSchauder's fixed point theoremtopological degree theoryArticle62WOS:000365262600001N/AQ2
