I'm not sure about installing the tar.gz file, but you can download an ISO image from here: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-desktop-next/daily-live/current/. Note: these are unstable (as is the file you already downloaded) and could break easily.
The file you probably want is this. If your tablet isn't 64-bit, then download this one. Burn it to a memory stick and boot to it from your tablet. You should then be able to run the installer from the live USB.
I recommend you don't do this at all if you're not sure, because these are development releases and could break; additionally, if something goes wrong, you might not know how to restore the tablet to how it previously was.

Despite the name, this is the touch version

It has a UI designed for tablets, though it will eventually adapt to whatever device you install it on, including desktops, which is why it's named as the desktop image.

Yes, it's very unstable and might not work on everything. Maybe try the current version? It has some support for tablets, might work
