Agreement in gender and number?

Do these adjectives always agree in gender and number to the object it refers to? 

I think the answer is yes, looking at the examples given, but as it is not specifically written (like in other lessons), it's always good to confirm!

Yes, they do:

Ce produit est inférieur àu nôtre. -- This product is inferior to ours.
Cette voiture est inférieure à la nôtre. -- This car is inferior to ours.
Cettes voitures sont inférieures aux nôtres. -- These cars are inferior to ours.

Sorry to be a smarta—e. Chris’s answer is brilliantly concise but there’s a stray à in àu nôtre.
