Answer

$\frac{5}{6}, 1, \sqrt5, 3, 5$

Work Step by Step

Add 2 to both sides of the inequality: $-2+3x+2 \ge \frac{1}{3}+2 \\3x \ge \frac{1}{3} + \frac{6}{3} \\3x \ge \frac{7}{3}$ Divide both sides of the inequality by $3$: $\dfrac{3x}{3} \ge \dfrac{\frac{7}{3}}{3} \\x \ge \frac{7}{9}$ Thus, the elements of $S$ that satisfy the inequality are: $\frac{5}{6}, 1, \sqrt5, 3, 5$
