UPDATE: Android Studio, even when zipped, is a huge file to download without being interrupted. If you have a poor internet connection, I would recommend using a download manager. It obviously cannot reduce the file size, but even if the download is interrupted, it can continue without hiccups while ensuring file integrity.
Steps to install Android Studio from a .zip folder:

android-studio folder to /opt for a system-wide installation.

I am new to Ubuntu, I have just installed dual boot Ubuntu 12.04. I want to install android studio, but I don't really know how. I have downloaded the android-studio-bundle.tgz file and in the it is written to unpack the file in the appropriate location. I don't really know what appropriate location for my applications means. Can you please tell me where to unpack this file, or if this is the correct way of installing android studio? also if you comment me a good guide or place to read about tips on ubuntu I would be very grateful, just to have general understanding of ubuntu.
main question: where should I unpack my android-studio-bundle.tgz file?

The key parts of the question as I see them: user is new to Ubuntu/Linux, user wants a recommendation based off of best practices and basic user experience.
@luis-de-sousa was correct in pointing out the Ubuntu directory structure, but I used this reference from Official Sources.
If you want android-studio to be available to all users (based on the above) you should be unpacking the tar/tgz/zip to
/opt rather than the /usr/local or /usr/bin (with the latter being preferred for specific-user installations). Setup properly, we shouldn't need to change user group permissions or any other high-level administration.
We are done with the terminal window, you can close it or
exit That .desktop file now allows you to search for and find android-studio within Ubuntu's Unity interface (or whatever DE menu/dash you are using). In other words, click that icon in the upper-left to search for android-studio You may also right-click on the icon while it is running and 'lock it to the launcher.'
You can also create menu options to appear for your application launcher, see the Ubuntu Documentation on Unity Launchers.
Besides the in-text citations, I also referenced the following pages extensively:

In Linux, programmes are usually stored in
/usr/local or /usr/share ; when you install a programme with apt it is automatically set up inside one of these folders. I would advise you to create a folder like /usr/local/android-studio and unpack the file there (note that you'll need sudo rights to do it).
Otherwise you can unpack it somewhere in your
home folder, also an option if you do not have sudo rights. Here it does not really matter where, you may create a folder like ~/software/android-studio for convenience.
Read more about the Linux directory structure.

Ok, let me state clear, there's an appropriated place to place stuff, but in this case, simple is the best, so I prefer any location where you already have write/read permissions, like you
$HOME directory.

.zshrc . Depending the shell you use. Done. You can use whatever path you like, just try to do not interfere with other software.
