Answer:

17

Explanation:

According to the graph below there are just 3 real zeros. If you count everything, there would be 17. I have chosen the real ones. But there are 14 others that all involve complex numbers. I don't know how you would find them.

Summary

There are 17 roots in total. 3 are real.
