I crushed one but didn’t smell very minty, but was kind of refreshing / balmy. There are tiny yellow flowers

The second one looks kind of like lantana, but no idea for sure
I’ve noticed these in my neighbor’s yard and also thought they looked like strawberry lol! I asked them and they said they didn’t plant any. I hadn’t noticed them before in past spring times.
Edit: you have several plants here. I’m seeing about 3-4 student ones, mostly common weeds. I think horse herb is the yellow flowering one.
Lantana kinda makes sense for the second pic. Maybe the first pic has some lantana in it but from seed? I’ve never seen it from seed.
First one is horseherb! It’s wonderful. A native alternative to non-native turf grass. Stays low to the ground. Likes partial sun and shade, typically. Leave it! It’s great!
Kinda looks like three lobed false mallow. I try to pull/mow these as much as possible. They can be tough to control once they grow large and set seed.
The first one is horse herb. It’s amazing and native and pollinator friendly and so soft to walk on
