If pesticides are present on the surfaces of your fruits and vegetables, you can definitely remove a substantial amount through washing and light scrubbing. However, you cannot remove all of them nor can you remove pesticides that have been incorporated into the fruits and vegetables while they were growing. Yearly, Environmental Working Group (EWG) will come up with a list of Dirty Dozen fruits and vegetables (https://www.ewg.org/foodnews/dirty_dozen_list.php). If you're thinking of purchasing some organic fruits and vegetables, maybe you can focus on the dirty dozen as they contain the highest percentage of pesticides.

Yes they are worth the extra cost as you will never be able to wash it all off. Agree with the above answer, follow the D12 list to start of and you'll reduce by about 80% your pesticide intake. Organic is more expensive because more labour is often required, farms are generally smaller and the certification process can be expensive.
