Either remove -Wconversion, or get rid of -pedantic-errors, you cannot have both. <math.h> has to declare functions required by the standard to use float arguments. -Wconversion is there to help playing together with code without prototypes, but you really cannot use any of the *f or *l functions in them anyway.
