I would try the following:
- to find out what is installed
aptitude search '~iapache'
- why it is installed
aptitude why apache2-mpm-worker
maybe this one is only recommended by another package
- and what depends on this package
aptitude search '~i~Dapache2-mpm-worker'
- finally,
aptitude accept almost all apt-get commands... but is better...
About apt-get for the future...

There are, I understand, problems that come up when you mix apt-get
