LibGDX - Android Studio cannot resolve symbol

we have to create an android application and we want to animate a 3d model. Therefore, we wanted to use libgdx. So we added these lines to our build.gradle file in android studio:

ext {
    appName = 'bream'
    gdxVersion = '1.3.1'
}

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    mavenLocal()
    maven { url "https://jitpack.io" }
    maven { url 'https://github.com/steffenschaefer/gwt-gradle-plugin/raw/maven-repo/' }
    maven { url "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/" }
    maven { url "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/releases/" }
}

dependencies {
    compile 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:3.23.0'
    compile 'com.android.support:support-v4:23.0.0'
    compile 'com.google.android.gms:play-services:+'
    compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.0'
    compile 'com.github.PhilJay:MPAndroidChart:v2.1.6'
    compile "com.badlogicgames.gdx:gdx:$gdxVersion"
}

However, it does not find "com.badlogic.gdx.backends.android" and the AndroidApplication class coming with this import. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks in advance!

Because you're clearly not loading "com.badlogic.gdx.backends.android". You're loading only the core LibGDX. Here's what it would look like for an Android gradle build.

        compile "com.badlogicgames.gdx:gdx:$gdxVersion"  // core        
        compile "com.badlogicgames.gdx:gdx-backend-android:$gdxVersion"
        natives "com.badlogicgames.gdx:gdx-platform:$gdxVersion:natives-armeabi"
        natives "com.badlogicgames.gdx:gdx-platform:$gdxVersion:natives-armeabi-v7a"
        natives "com.badlogicgames.gdx:gdx-platform:$gdxVersion:natives-arm64-v8a"
        natives "com.badlogicgames.gdx:gdx-platform:$gdxVersion:natives-x86"
        natives "com.badlogicgames.gdx:gdx-platform:$gdxVersion:natives-x86_64"

I suggest you to download LibGDX's gradle setup application from their website to understand how the dependencies work together.
