As indicated by the error message, update doesn’t accept any arguments:



sudo apt-get update


is the appropriate command to update your repository indexes.



To fix a broken install, use install:



sudo apt-get install -f

    You need to type --fix-missing, with two -s at the beginning. 
    Your question shows –fix-missing, with an en-dash.
