How can I restore courses to a new Moodle installation and a year old data backup not made with Moodle?

I have inherited a tar.gz that is a supposed backup of a moodle installation that got deleted (the whole VM before I got here).  The tar.gz contains directories "moodle" ,  "moodledata"  and  the file "moodle.database.mysql".  There are two other tar.gz files here that one that contains the contents of the  "/var/www/html/moodle/"  directory and one contains the contents of the /var/moodledata/  directory.

Is there anyway we can reconstruct the course \ class structure in a new installation of moodle (preferred) or reconstruct the whole old installation?

Looking at Ubuntu Server 16.04 as the host OS for the new Moodle installation.

Thanks in advance!
