Is this simple proof about symmetric sums correct? I'm asked to prove 
$$x \gt 0, y \gt 0, z  \gt 0 \rightarrow$$
$$\left(\frac{x+y}{x+y+z}\right)^\frac{1}{2}+\left(\frac{x+z}{x+y+z}\right)^\frac{1}{2} + \left(\frac{y+z}{x+y+z}\right)^\frac{1}{2} \le 6^\frac{1}{2}$$  
I rewrite the summands and say that it is sufficient to prove:
$$A^\frac{1}{2} + B^\frac{1}{2} + C^\frac{1}{2} \le 6^\frac{1}{2} $$ 
$$ A +B +C = 2$$
$$ 0 \lt A, B, C \le 1$$
Now I just square both sides to get:
$$A + (AB)^\frac{1}{2} + (AC)^\frac{1}{2} + B + (BC)^\frac{1}{2} + C \le 6$$
This seems simple:
$$2  + (AB)^\frac{1}{2} + (AC)^\frac{1}{2} + (BC)^\frac{1}{2} \le$$ 
$$ 2  + 1 + 1 + 1 \le 5 \le 6$$  
So I ended up proving that the original bounds were too loose. That makes me worry that I messed up my proof somewhere.

Another approach is to use Lagrange multipliers. With $A$, $B$, and $C$ as you chose, the minimum value of $f(A,B,C) = \sqrt{A} + \sqrt{B} + \sqrt{C}$ subject to the constraint $A+B+C=2$ must occur at a local minimum of $F(A,B,C,\lambda) = \sqrt{A} + \sqrt{B} + \sqrt{C} + \lambda (A+B+C-2)$. 
This can only occur if ${\partial{F}\over\partial{A}}$, ${\partial{F}\over\partial{B}}$, and ${\partial{F}\over\partial{C}}$ are simultaneously zero. Calculating the derivatives, we get $${1\over{2\sqrt{A}}}+\lambda={1\over{2\sqrt{B}}}+\lambda={1\over{2\sqrt{C}}}+\lambda=0\textrm{,}$$ which implies that $A=B=C$. Using the fact that $A+B+C=2$, it follows that $A=B=C={2\over3}$. The minimum value of $\sqrt{A} + \sqrt{B} + \sqrt{C}$ is then $3\sqrt{2\over3}$, which equals $\sqrt6$.
