Metamagic raises the tier of the magic you're using it on as in D&D. Ignoring twin magic and triplet magic (which I don't have the rules for), maximize + widen + silent would raise a spell's tier by 7. That means the highest tier magic you could use these three metamagics on simultaneously is tier 2, and casting that tier 2 spell would cost the same as casting a tier 9 spell.
