This is a fourth degree polynomial, so by the fundamental theorem of algebra, there are four zeroes, whether they are complex or real.

The expression can be rational factorized into
-5x(x-3)(x+4)(x-4), so all four factors (hence zeroes) are real.

Answer: There are four real zeroes in -5x(x-3)(x^2-16)
