Why are the adjectives feminine when transport is masculine?

I don't understand the difference between these two english responses.  I chose the scones in the quiz and it was market wrong.  Thank you for any clarification.

"Mathilde a rentré la voiture avant qu'il ne pleuve." means: 

·       Mathilde put the car back (in the garage) before it rained.

·       Mathilde returned the car before it rained.

If 'Je suis monté en voiture' means 'I got into the car', how does one say (if visiting someone on a hill and they asks how you got there) 'I came up by car ?
Surely that is also 'Je suis monté en voiture'.....

The KWIS has a question:

Nous ________ les cheveux. We brushed our hair

(HINT: Conjugate "se brosser" (to brush) in the compound past (Passé Composé))

Answer given: nous sommes brossé

But the text states:

Reflexive verbs always use être as the auxiliary verb in Le Passé Composé.

Note also that the verb must agree with the gender and number of the person.

i.e. taking an extra -e for women, and an extra -s for more than one person,

{In text: Conjugate reflexive verbs (+être) in the compound past in French (Le Passé Composé)}

Then should the answer not be:

nous sommes brossés ?

"Je n'ai pas de X." 

Should "X" be in the singular form or in the plural? Does it depend on which form it was in in the question? 

eg. "Avez-vous une voiture ?" -> "Je n'ai pas de voiture." but "Avez-vous des chaussures ?" -> "Je n'ai pas de chaussures." ?

Is this also the correct way of framing inversion questions with Object Pronouns??? -

1. L’Aimes-tu? / L'aimez-vous? [Do you like him/her?]

2. Lui parles-tu souvent? / Lui parlez-vous souvent? [Do you speak to him/her often?]

3. Les avez-vous vus? /  Les avez-vous vues? [Have you seen them?]

Is the above way more formal, than the intonation method used in this lesson?

How do you spell cause de sure

This link says that an Indirect Object Pronoun can also be introduced by the preposition pour (for).  But I can find only examples with preposition ' à  (to)' ...Can you please share a few examples of Indirect Object Pronouns with preposition pour; can't find them in this lesson and other Indirect Object related lessons.

In the passage, ”...nous nous sommes tous assis pour partager un festin”, I only hear one nous.

This link tells me that the spelling for le future simple conjugation of appeler is single “l”. Please have a look. Merci! https://progress.lawlessfrench.com/revision/grammar/verbs/appeler
