Answer:

Carlton thinks that converting metric units is as easy as moving the decimal point

Step-by-step explanation:

When you convert the unit, you move decimal point on your answer from the left to the right or from the right to the left the number of places as per relevant prefix.

Example:

1 meter = 1000 millimeters (1.0 m = 1000.0 mm)
1 milligram = 0.001 grams ( 1.0 mg = 0.001 g)

see attached for prefixes

Answer:

decimal point

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert a metric unit, you are going to either multiply or divide.

Some examples include:

km/1000 = m
m/100 = cm
cm/10 = mm
mm*10 = cm
cm*100 = m
m*1000 = km

Best of Luck!

First observe that if $a+b>0$ ,

$(a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2 \\\\ \implies a + b = \sqrt{a^2 + 2ab + b^2} = \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b(a + b)} \\\\ \implies a + b = \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b(a+b)}} \\\\ \implies a + b = \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b(a+b)}}} \\\\ \implies a + b = \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b \sqrt{a^2 + ab + b \sqrt{\cdots}}}}$
