Where we are talking about multiple things (computers, houses, etc.) rather than single things (a computer, a house) there are specific endings for nouns and adjectives
Luckily plurals of nouns, in all genders have the same endings in Dative. We'll see this is true for almost all cases.
For the Dative case we aim for an 'om' ending on the noun.
I trusted the women - Ufałam kobietom
I trusted the computers - Ufałam komputerom
So how would you say:
We trusted the supermarkets -
They trusted the doctors (mixed group) -
They trusted the banks (mixed group) -
Adjectives are the same for all genders. They have a 'ym' ending
He helped the old women - On pomógł starym kobietom
He helped the new doctors - On pomógł nowym lekarzom
If you look at your table of endings you'll see these are the same endings as masculine and neuter nouns in the Instrumental and Locative case! So these are not new endings to learn, we just need to remember they are applied here as well.
So how would you say
She trusted the new doctors -
We trusted the new computers -
They trusted the new computers (mixed)
They trusted the old banks (mixed)
He helped the clever women (mixed)
And if adjectives end the same that means 'my' and 'your' do as well.
I helped your sons (male) - Pomogłem twoim synom
You trusted my sons (male) - Ufałeś moim synom
And one final piece of good news. 'This', 'these' and 'those' are all the same word - 'tym'
I trusted those women (male) - Ufałem tym kobietom
We trusted these new computers - Ufaliśmy tym nowym komputerom
We helped those old doctors - Pomagaliśmy tym starym lekarzom
