To solve these inequalities, let's tackle each one separately:

1. X - 2 < -11:
We add 2 to both sides of the inequality:
X < -9

2. -3x < -18:
We divide both sides of the inequality by -3, but remember that when you divide or multiply by a negative number, you need to change the direction of the inequality:
x > 6

So, the solution for these inequalities is:
X < -9 or x > 6
