This is my code

```
\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{nccmath}
\usepackage{tcolorbox}

\begin{document}
	
	\begin{tcolorbox}
		\[
		\begin{subequations}
			\begin{cases}
				x^2 + 2x + 2 = 0\\
				y = \dfrac{x^2 + mx + 3}{x-6} 
\end{cases}
		\end{subequations}
		\]
	\end{tcolorbox}
	
\end{document}
```

I get

How can I label each equation $x^2 + 2x + 2 = 0$ is (1a) and $y = \dfrac{x^2 + mx + 3}{x-6}$ is (1b)?

You could use the `subnumcases` environment from the `cases` package:

```
\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{nccmath}
\usepackage[most]{tcolorbox}
\usepackage{cases}

\begin{document}

\begin{tcolorbox}[ams nodisplayskip]
\begin{subnumcases}{}
  x^2 + 2x + 2 = 0 & \\
  y = \frac{x^2 + mx + 3}{x-6} & 
\end{subnumcases}
\end{tcolorbox}

\end{document}
```

To label each equation automatically within your system of equations, you need to use the `subequations` environment properly. Here's the updated code:

```
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{nccmath}
\usepackage{tcolorbox}

\begin{document}

\begin{tcolorbox}
    \begin{subequations}
        \begin{align}
            x^2 + 2x + 2 &= 0 \label{eq:1a} \\
            y &= \dfrac{x^2 + mx + 3}{x-6} \label{eq:1b}
        \end{align}
    \end{subequations}
\end{tcolorbox}

\end{document}
```

This will label your equations as (1a) and (1b) automatically.

Enter question or answer id or url (and optionally further answer ids/urls from the same question) from

Separate each id/url with a space. No need to list your own answers; they will be imported automatically.
