Need help in "Gradle DSL method not found" in Android Studio

I'm rather new to android development. I have been pulling my hair for days and have not been able to figure out how to get it to compile. I use

Android Studio 3.1.1 Build #AI-173.4697961, built on April 4, 2018 JRE: 1.8.0_152-release-1024-b02 amd64 JVM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM by JetBrains s.r.o Windows 10 10.0

Now whenever I try to compile I get this beautiful colorful message that smiles and says: gradle error

corresponding Event log

gradle.build (Module level)

sample app gradle build

How can I get to successful compilation? what am I doing wrong here? I'm a newbie so do not assume things. I really don't know how to fix this. tried a few things that are there on the net but none of them works. besides they all are for android studio 2.x something. so maybe those solutions do not apply

The second line of your last screenshot is:

ext.kotlin_version = '1.2.30' '1.1.2-5'

That is not valid Groovy syntax, and your error is complaining about a 1.2.30() method invocation, which fits.

Remove one of those two strings. Since 1.2.30 is newer, I suggest trying:

ext.kotlin_version = '1.2.30'
