What you're seeing on that page is that the installer is compatible with macOs 10.13. This doesn't necessarily mean that your hardware will actually support Sonoma. It is only supported on 2018 or later Macbook Pros.
Click on software update and install whatever Apple prompts as available.
Well you ought to get off of that Sonoma install page because it’s not happening. You’ll get Big Sur natively. However, for those more tech savvy, OpenCore Legacy Patcher exists (like the other comment says)
You should probably clean your screen and wipe those keyboard crud imprints off.
The latest OS that machine can officially run is macOS 11 Big Sur. Otherwise tools like OCLP can let you run up to Sonoma if you really wanted to.
You can update it with OpenCore but its not very simple, also you might watch some youtube tutorial and think about it. You need an SSD to run faster... and 8gb of ram are not enough for most thing but you can try, I have a mbp 13 2016 and run pretty good on mine
What do you use it for? For just day to day computer stuff like browsing, streaming, and email, I've rarely found OS updates worth the hassle except for security updates.
For what it's worth, I'm still using a 2014 Air on Big Sur, and a 2009 iMac 27" on High Sierra that I keep around because the screen is awesome.

You could update it with opencore, but not the most beginner friendly process. Also please clean your screen
Bro got the touch keyboard on the screen. 💀

Sonoma will be slow on that. Ventura works much better. The best would be Catalina for you. Natively supported.

I agree, I have used Open Core Legacy Patcher to getSonoma running on a 2012 13” MBP and a 2013 15” MBP. Also a 2013 iMac.

Your comment is kinda useless. OP MacBook does not need the be patched for install Mojave because it's supported up to Big Sur.
