rental income and downpayment inputs for house hacking

hi, I am interested in house hacking strategy (living with tenant). my question is that when analyzing the deals, what numbers should I use for 1) rental income: should I include the market rental for the unit I will be living in or just the one that I rent out? 2) downpayment: should I use the usual 20% or 3.5% that I will get from FHA?

Thanks!
