I don't understand why they get this answer. The answer I am getting is the exact same as them except shifted 3V down. This is because the DC part (given from the voltage divider) gives a middle point of 3V and when this is removed by capacitor 2, it will cause the voltage to be -3V? Can someone please explain why i am wrong and if not, why this answer is correct? Any help is appreciated...

The output capacitor will remove the DC part of the output signal. If the signal is 0 there is no DC part and the capacitor won't remove anything.

Okay, so before it enters the final capacitor, would the graph look like a simple straight line, due to clipping. Since this straight line is infact a DC voltage (it doesn't vary) due to the clipping, it is removed by the capacitor and as such, the V out is zero. Is that right?
