The code that I did shows the audio with FFT, now I'm trying to make a function that counts the number of significant frequencies of the chart:

I still don't have much experience with MATLAB, so I need some help to identify these peaks with a code

You can use findpeaks, probably with some additional parameters. For instance, if the plotted signal is P:
Z = findpeaks(P,'MinPeakHeight',5);
numPeaks = numel(Z);
See the findpeaks documentation if you need to supply additional criteria as to what counts as a peak.
If you call the function without assigning it to an output, the function will create a plot like you've posted.
findpeaks(P,'MinPeakHeight',5)
