What's the formal response for ¿cómo está usted?

Okay i need someone to translate this to spanish for me . i would use google but it aint that accurate. my goals for this semester are very cliche. just like any other student i would like to be a straight a student and make the honor roll by the end of this semester. so far im doing really well following my goals. when i achieve my goals my family would be so proud of me. its honestly a good feeling when you do something big (:

Complete these using subjunctive form

"in english, write six to eight sentences comparing cultural aspects of greetings in spanish-speaking countries with greetings in your own culture. use what you learned in the lessons to tell about three differences and three similarities. discuss non-verbal greetings and how respect is shown. you may also include verbal greetings, but do not simply translate phrases from one language to another."
