$x\lt-1$

$\bf{\text{Solution Outline:}}$ The solutions to the given inequality, $ f(x)\lt g(x) ,$ are the $x$-values for which the graph of $f$ is below the graph of $g.$ $\bf{\text{Solution Details:}}$ Using the graph, the solutions to the given inequality are the $x$-values for which $f$ is below $g.$ Hence, the solution set is \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} x\lt-1 .\end{array}
