By using the fixed point theorem of mixed monotone operators in cones, we establish the conditions for the existence and uniqueness of positive solutions to the problem. Moreover, we derive various properties of the positive solutions to the equation and establish their dependence on the model parameter. The theorem obtained in this paper is more general and complements many previous known results including singular and nonlinear cases. Application of the results to the study of differential equations are also given in the article.
