Two numbers added together equals - 1: x + y = -1

The same two numbers multiplied equals 2: xy = 2

If there was a solution, both numbers would have to be negative to satisfy the two conditions at the same time: y < 0, x < 0

After spending some time calculating, I recon there is no solution to this equation system that satisfy the two conditions simultaneously.

1) x+y = -1

2) xy = 2

Answer: The question is missing a solution. No solution is possible.

What 2 numbers multiplied together equal 32 and added together equal negative 12?

To solve this problem, we can set up a system of equations. Let's call the two numbers x and y. We know that xy = 32 and x + y = -12. By substituting the value of y from the second equation into the first equation, we get x(-12-x) = 32. Simplifying this equation, we get -12x - x^2 = 32. Rearranging the terms, we get x^2 + 12x - 32 = 0. By factoring or using the quadratic formula, we find the solutions x = -8 and x = 4. Therefore, the two numbers are -8 and -4.
