Mathematical relationship between N1 and N2

Assuming a "standard" LP/HP jet engine (say that of a B737 NG), what is the relationship between N1 and N2? As there is no direct linkage between the two shafts the ratio between N1/N2 won't be constant. Is there a way to calculate N1 from N2 (if the parameters such as air density, temperature etc... are known)?

Thanks!
