How do you distinguish between trash and death metal?

The lines can be a bit vague at time. Death Metal was derived from Thrash - it basically took Thrash, and stripped it down even further to its most basic elements. Early Death Metal bands (Possessed, Incubus - the band now known as Opprobrium, pre-Arise era Sepultura, Graf Spee, etc.) were still Thrash bands at their core. In the 1990s, Death Metal sought to further the gap between Thrash bands and themselves, and turned to Hardcore Punk and its derivatives (Powerviolence, Crust Punk, Grindcore, etc.) for influence - this is especially apparent with bands such as Cannibal Corpse, later Morbid Angel albums, Deicide, etc. Thus, your more modern Death Metal bands tend to be quite distinguishable from Thrash bands, whereas earlier Death Metal bands drew a much finer line.


How many death metal bands are there?

No real statistics on this, not to mention numbers would be skewed based on what the perceptions of Death Metal are by various people... for example, a lot of the purists (myself included) tend to exclude these Gothenburg/"Melodeath" bands, which tend to be derived more from Speed and Power Metal, and don't have much - if any - commonality with Death Metal bands. For a rough estimate you can go over to Metal Archives and search by genre.
