Use the image to answer the question.

A histogram's x-axis is labeled 'Time to Fall Asleep' with minute units and ranges from 4 to 24 in intervals of 3. The y-axis is labeled 'Frequency' and ranges from 0 to 5 by 1-unit increments. 7 bars are plotted, 1 for each interval on the x-axis.

To determine the total number of people who participated in the survey, we need to find the frequency of responses for each interval on the histogram's x-axis ('Time to Fall Asleep') and sum these frequencies.

Based on the description, if we assume each bar on the histogram represents the following frequencies:

  • 4 to 7 minutes: 2 people
  • 7 to 10 minutes: 3 people
  • 10 to 13 minutes: 1 person
  • 13 to 16 minutes: 4 people
  • 16 to 19 minutes: 2 people
  • 19 to 22 minutes: 2 people
  • 22 to 24 minutes: 0 people

We add these frequencies together:

  • 2 + 3 + 1 + 4 + 2 + 2 + 0 = 14

Thus, the total number of people who participated in the survey is 14.

However, if the specific frequency counts for the histogram were provided in the original question, please refer to those exact numbers for accurate calculation. If each frequency sums up to a different total number, adjust accordingly based on the actual frequencies presented in the histogram image.
