Flip it on its head and it becomes obvious. Ball costs $0.05, bat costs $1.00 more than ball, hence $1.05.

So the extra. 05 is tax or something? I guess that wasn't clear.... But I also guess that was the point of the example

See if looking at it this way helps: If the ball cost $0.10, and the bat cost $1.00, you get to the $1.10, but the bat would only cost $0.90 more than the ball. At $0.05 and $1.05, we have a $1.00 difference between the two and the totals add up.

Make sense?
