Find roots of polynomial with degree ge5

During our research we came up with the problem of computing the root of a polynomial of degree 5 exactly. The coefficients are, except for the linear and constant term, all non-negative and there are only terms with even degree. The only thing we know is that there formulas for a degree up to 4 and no formula for a higher degree, but is it possible to compute the roots of a higher-degree polynomial exactly, too? If so, what is the complexity?



Here is some more information:



The equation looks like A(n)xa0=0 for some arbitrary integral n. Thereby, A(0)=x and A(i)=aiA(i1)(A(i1)+bi) for i{1,,n}. All the values ai,bi are non-negative real numbers for i{1,,n} whereas a0 is arbitrary.
