Capulet: How long is't now since last yourself and I were in a mask?
2nd Capulet: By'r lady, thirty years.
If it was thirty years since Capulet was last at a party in a mask he can be no younger than his late forties, probably older (since why should he not continue appearing in a mask into his twenties?).
That makes him a lot older than his wife who had Juliet when she was Juliet's age. This makes her twice Juliet's age, or about twenty-six.

Who is Juliet waiting for in act 2 scene 5?
I suppose you mean Act 2 Scene 5 where Juliet is waiting for the nurse to come back. In Act 4 Scene 5 she is waiting for the potion to wear off so she'll wake up. Act 3 Scene 5 is a busy scene with not much time in it for waiting. In Act 1 Scene 5 Juliet is waiting for Romeo to kiss her when she says, "Saints do not move, but grant for prayers' sake."
What does Juliet decide to do in act two scene five?
Nothing. She had already decided to marry Romeo if he would have her. In this scene she finds out that he will have her and he has arranged the wedding. That does not prompt a decision on Juliet's part; she has already made up her mind about what she wants to do.
