To determine how many batches of cookies can be made using 22 ounces of chocolate chips, we need to solve the equation y = 4x for x, where y = 22.

Substituting y = 22 into the equation, we have 22 = 4x.

Dividing both sides of the equation by 4, we get x = 22/4 = 5.5.

Therefore, 5.5 batches of cookies can be made using 22 ounces of chocolate chips.

The correct answer is 5.5 batches.
