A scientist is growing bacteria in a petri dish. The scatter plot below shows the number of bacteria in the dish over time.

A graph is shown.A graph of 'Time' in days from 0 to 12 on the x axis and 'Number of Bacteria' from 0 to 400 on the y axis is shown. Nine points are plotted beginning at 1 comma 50 increasing to approximately 9 comma 325. Points between these two include approximately 2 comma 110, 3 comma 80, 4 comma 120, 5 comma 175, 6 comma 225, 7 comma 240, and 8 comma 275.

If this growth trend continues, approximately how many bacteria would be in the petri dish on day 10?
