To calculate the gross income, we need to add up all the sources of income.

1. **Salary:** $4,000 per month
2. **Side job income:**
- Hourly wage: $20
- Hours per week: 10
- Weeks per month: 4
- Monthly income from side job: \( 20 \, \text{(dollars/hour)} \times 10 \, \text{(hours/week)} \times 4 \, \text{(weeks/month)} = 800 \, \text{dollars} \)
3. **Rent from roommate:** $1,000 per month

Now, add them together:

\[
4,000 \, \text{(salary)} + 800 \, \text{(side job)} + 1,000 \, \text{(rent)} = 5,800 \, \text{dollars}
\]

Therefore, the gross income is **$5,800**.

The correct response is:

**$5,800**
