Figure 11-7a shows a line segment 1 unit long. In the first iteration, an image is formed by removing the middle third of the segment. In the second iteration, an image is formed by removing the middle third of each segment in the first iteration. If the iterations are done infinitely many times, the image is called the Cantor set, after Georg Cantor, a German mathematician who lived from 1845 to 191 How many segments are there in the 10th iteration? What is the total length of the segments in the 10th iteration? What does the total length approach as the number of iterations increases without bound? Figure 11-7a R
