What is the value of x ?

• Case 1 $x$ is negative: If that were the case, then $x^2$ would have been greater than $x$ hence, forward of it. But that is not the case here.

• Case 2 $x =0$ : $0$ can be checked trivially and we see that it isn't the case

• Case 3 $x >1$ : So we conclude that $x$ is positive. Let's see whether it is greater or less than 1. If it is greater than 1, the points would be from left to right and not right to left.

• Case 4: $x$ is negative: Hence $x<1$ .

The only option less than 1 is $\boxed{\dfrac{3}{4}}$
