    The two numbers are - 5, 3. Which are multiply together to equal - 15 and add together equal - 2.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Step:1

    Let, X, Y.

    Where X, Y are two numbers.

    Step:2

    Form the Multiplication equation from given,

    X*Y=-15 (∵ Multiply to equal - 15)

    Step:3

    Form Addition equation from given,

    X+Y = - 2 (∵ Add equal to - 2)

    Step:4

    Check for alternatives to satisfy both equations

    Assume, X=1, Y=-15

    -15+1 = - 14 (Not Satisfy addition equation)

    1 * (-15) = - 15 (Satisfy multiplication equation)

    Assume, X=15, Y=-1

    -1+15 = 14 (Not Satisfy addition equation)

    (-1) * 15 = - 15 (Satisfy multiplication equation)

    similarly.,

    assume X=-5, Y=3

    -5+3 = - 2 (Satisfy addition equation)

    (-5) * 3 = - 15 (Satisfy multiplication equation)

    So, the two numbers are - 5,3.
