    The sandwich cost is 1.3$, the glass of milk is 0.65$ and the apple is 0.4$

    Step-by-step explanation:

    let the costs be x (sandwich), y (glass of milk) and z (apple) respectively

    x=2y

    z+0.90=x=2y

    then z=2y-0.90

    then x+y+z=2.35$

    (2y) + y + (2y-0.90) = 2.35$

    5y=2.35+0.90

    5y=3.25$

    y=0.65$

    then x=2y=2*0.65=1.3$

    then z=2y-0.90=1.3-0.90=0.4$
