So on the last problem it explicitly says we are able to create/use helper functions to implement our sorting algorithm. My question is, are we also allowed to use helper functions on problems where we aren't explicitly given permission?

In the last problem, you need to use removemax to sort. But the other problems don't need helper functions. So, no.

Is the maximum function that is already defined considered a helper function? I want to use it in problem 3

You can use maximum.
