The domain of your function is d = \mathbb{R}_0^+.

Therefore x and y-intercepts are at x = 0 and y = 0.

That's what I thought, but it's not an answer =[ it's possible it could be an error...or is it one of those choices?

From all possible choices I would have taken:

x-intercepts: (0,0) , (-2); y-intercepts: (0,0)

But I'm confused about the single (-2) and I've no idea what is meant by that.
