How do the "Rapid Shot" and "Manyshot" Feats interact?

Rapid Shot: At -2 (for both attacks), you can add another ranged attack (must use a full attack).
Manyshot: At -4 each, you can shoot 2 arrows simultaneously as a standard action.

Does this mean a person with both feats can use a full round to shoot:
- 3 arrows (2 arrows simultaneously at -6 to hit + 1 extra ranged attack at -2 to hit)?
- 4 arrows (2 arrows simultaneously at -6 to hit, twice)?
- or only 2 arrows (either two separate shots at -2 to hit; or two simultaneously at -4 to hit, with a move action still available)?

Rapid Shot is a Full-Round action, Manyshot is a standard action. You can't do both at the same time.

You can either use Rapid Shot to fire extra arrows with a -2, or you can use Manyshot to fire extra arrows with a -4, but Manyshot allows you to take a move action as well.

Glacialcat is correct. The answer to the question 'How do Rapid Shot and Manyshot interact?' is 'They don't.' :)

Yup, what he said.
