\(s\) - not an integer
(A) \(\frac{s}{3}\) - For any non-integer value of s, this can't be an integer.
(B) \(\frac{9s}{5}\) - take \(s = \frac{5}{9}\) - integer
(C) \(\frac{4}{s}\) - take \(s = \frac{1}{4}\) - integer
(D) 2s - take \(s = \frac{1}{2}\) - integer
(E) \(\sqrt{5s+2}\) - take \(s = \frac{2}{5}\) - integer
Answer \(A\)
