How much for the ball?
You went to a store to buy a baseball and bat. It cost $1.10. If the bat cost $1 more than the ball, how much did the ball cost?

price of ball = x
price of bat = y
so
$1.10 = x + y
if the price of the bat is $1.00 more than the price of the ball we can say:
y = ($1.00 + x)
substitute into the above equation to get it all in terms of the same variable:
$1.10 = x + ($1.00 + x) = $1.00 + 2x
subtract $1.00 from both sides of the equation and solve for x
$0.10 = 2x
x = $0.05
so, if I am interpreting your question correctly, the bat is $1.05 and the ball is $0.05.

quantumeffect beat me to it but I just went, for b = bat:
b + (b-100) = 110
2b - 100 = 110
2b = 210
b = 105
Therefore bat is $1.05 and ball is $0.05

This is a quiz used by psychologists. People who stereotype and work on the quick-to-judge thoughts will almost always first say 10 cents. Try it on your friends.

But one dollar is not one dollar more that $0.10. The text reads ONE DOLLAR MORE THAN THE BALL. You left out the most critical part of the text. You must be a happy drunk.

$1.05 is one dollar more than $0.05. $1.00 is only $0.90 more than $0.10.
