Nelli has explained it perfectly.
And as you can see 'agnostic' is a philosophical position, so the terms are not mutually exclusive. You can define yourself as 'agnostic atheist'. I do, for example.

Athiests know there is no god, agnostics either aren't sure if god exists, or refuse to join an organized religion because they are all so greedy( religions, not agnostics)

Atheists don't believe in any god. Agnostics are unsure about the existence of god, or they don't believe that there's any way of knowing for sure.

Athiests believe that there is no God, while Agnostics are not sure if there is one or is not one. They do believe in a higher powe of sorts.

Agnostic believes in a higher authority
Atheist does not.
I apologize if I am incorrect.

Agnosticism is the philosophical view that the truth value of certain claims — particularly theological claims regarding the existence of God, gods, or deities — is unknown or inherently unknowable.
ATHEIST:
A person who does not believe the proposition "At least one god exists"; or
A person who believes the proposition "No god or gods exist".

Agnostic believe in the existance of God, they simply do not believe in him as RULER, CREATOR etc.
Atheist says there are no God. He/She does not exist.
